I made a batch of Cowboy Caviar tonight. It is the third batch I have made and it is getting better as I customize the recipe.
It's basically vegetables chopped up with a dressing/marinade poured over it. You eat it on tortilla chips.

I use a slap chopper and it makes things go quickly.

Google cowboy caviar and experiment. There are several basic recipes. It's good on a hot summer night.

I'd never heard of it so I looked up some recipes .... sounds good, will probably make up a batch .... thanks for the info

a couple of hours ago, following the recipe in this link ===> http://allrecipes.com/recipe/237603/bes ... oy-caviar/ <=== we made our first batch of Cowboy Caviar .... looking forward to giving it a try tomorrow

It looks right. The recipe sounds good too. Looking forward to hearing about it.

I bet Badger up in Alberta would help RR eat some of that

tasted after 24 hrs in the frig .... very nice, another batch being made to take to a family function on Friday

I wouldn't steer you wrong. Glad it came out well.

I'd be lucky to get any. His manners are atrocious. You'd think he was born in a barn.

another Cowboy Caviar Recipe - a friend who is an excellent cook cobbled together from other recipes, and the ingredients from a Cowboy Caviar she had at a restaurant in GA back in 2012

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained & rinsed

1 (15 ounce) can black-eyed peas, drained & rinsed

1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, drained & rinsed (I prefer two cans of black-eyed peas, instead of pinto beans - personal preference.)

1 cup diced celery

1 small bunch parsley leaves, chopped

1/2 red bell pepper, diced

1/2 yellow bell pepper, diced

1/2 cup chopped green onion

1 (2 ounce) jar chopped pimento peppers

2 tablespoons minced jalapeno pepper

1 tablespoon minced garlic

I also add a 2 oz can of sliced black olives sometimes.

Dressing - mix ingredients well
1/2 cup rice vinegar (just the regular - not seasoned)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil (I use safflower or grapeseed oil)
1/3 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt (I cut this in half)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Mix together the beans and vegetables. Stir in the dressing. Refrigerate at least four hours, but overnight is much better.

reviving an oldie but goodie ..... we plan to mix up a batch of Cowboy Caviar tomorrow .... really looking forward to it

we have a batch cooling in the frig .... looking forward to eating it tomorrow with some Scoops

another revival, made or our camping club outing over the weekend of May 14 - 16, 2021
