"I love that this recipe is both a fun snack and an actually nutritious food. The black-eyed peas, crunchy veggies, and zingy vinaigrette make a dip full of plant-based protein and fiber that also tastes absolutely delicious! This dip was invented in Texas in the 1940's (it's also called Cowboy caviar), and then spread all over the US. My spin on this party dip always has friends gathered around the bowl at our house and for good reason: it's just that tasty!"
"Ready in 15 to 20 minutes: It just depends on how long it takes you to chop veggies! Total crowd-pleaser: Everyone gathers around the bowl when we serve it Naturally plant-based and gluten-free: Many party snacks feature cheese or bread so I love that this one is so fresh and colorful! Make-ahead friendly: It actually tastes better after marinating overnight"
"Just like a good potato salad, everyone has their own way to make ingredients in Texas caviar! The common denominator: black eyed peas are a must. From there, there are all sorts of variations on the vegetables and dressing. Here are the essential fresh ingredients you need: Black-eyed peas: The star ingredient! You can use canned black-eyed peas for convenience or cook dried black eyed peas from scratch"
Texas caviar is a zesty, fresh bean-and-vegetable salad centered on black-eyed peas, often combined with black beans, sweet corn, and red bell pepper. The beans and crunchy vegetables are tossed in a tangy vinaigrette that provides plant-based protein, fiber, and bright flavor. The recipe was invented in Texas in the 1940s and is also known as Cowboy caviar. Preparation takes about 15 to 20 minutes, mostly for chopping, and the dip improves after marinating overnight. The dish is naturally plant-based and gluten-free, makes a crowd-pleasing appetizer for parties and picnics, and is easy to prepare ahead.
