Cowboy Caviar
A Sult family favorite - perfect as a summer side, a delicious snack or just because!
Ingredients:
For the dressing:
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup granulated sugar or to taste (see note 1)
1/4 cup white wine vinegar (see note 2)
1 teaspoon chili powder
Salt
For the vegetables:
1 pound Roma tomatoes seeded and diced
1 (15-ounce) can black-eyed peas drained and rinsed
1 (15-ounce) can black beans drained and rinsed
1 (11-ounce) can sweet corn drained (see note 3)
1 red onion peeled and diced
1 green bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and diced
1 red bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and diced
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro or fresh parsley, from 1 bunch
Directions:
To make the dressing, in a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, sugar, white wine vinegar, chili powder, and salt to taste (I like 1 teaspoon).
In a large bowl, add tomatoes, black-eyed peas, black beans, corn, red onion, bell peppers, and cilantro. Drizzle with the dressing and stir to combine. Cover and chill until serving time.
Notes:
I like to use Apple Cider Vinegar in place of the white wine vinegar. I usually use frozen corn and I don't use any sugar. I feel like the peppers are sweet enough.
We like to enjoy this with tortilla chips (grain-free) or Dr. Sult likes to eat it like a salad.
Enjoy!
