Texas Caviar Ingredients

6 ounces Pinto beans (1/2 can)1 teaspoon Salt
12 ounces Blackeyed peas w/ jalapeno (1 can)1/2 teaspoon Pepper
12 ounces White shoepeg corn (1 can)1 tbs Water
4 ounces Pimento pepper (small jar)3/4 cup Cider vinegar
1 cup Green pepper chopped1/2 cup Vegetable oil

Instructions for Texas Caviar

Drain beans, peas, corn and pimento and mix together

In a saucepan, bring to boil salt, pepper, water, vinegar, oil and sugar. Cool completely before pouring over bean mixture. Marinate at least 24 hours before serving. Drain and serve on a leaf of lettuce. Serve low carb tortilla chips alongside. Store in saved marinade. Keeps in refrigerator for 2 months

Low Carb Tortilla Chips:
I take low-carb tortillas, cut them in wedges, spray them lightly with oil and bake them until crisp. Sprinkle a bit of sea salt in them if you desire.

Each (3/4 cup) serving (excluding any chips) contains an estimated:

I added some chopped mango and finely diced jalapeno to the latest batch. The office gang descended on it like a starving chihuahua on a pork chop. A double batch disappeared in about 4 hours of "snacking".

I updated the recipe to reduce the carbs and make it diabetic-friendly. It was delicious.
