How To Make Cowboy Caviar

“Looking for something different to bring to a barbeque or picnic this weekend? Or, maybe you just want something to make to gobble up yourself? Here it is folks! I made this one afternoon for a BBQ we were going to later in the evening. I couldn’t stop ‘tasting’ it. Then, when my husband came in he couldn’t either. Once we got to the BBQ, we were anxious to open it so we could dive in. This recipe makes a lot, almost 3 pounds worth of food, and it was pretty much eaten by four adults! We forced ourselves to eat the rest of the food, but we could have just had the bean salsa and been good. It’s a hardy appetizer, but the Italian dressing gives it a nice, light taste. Really, with all of the beans and vegetables, it’s good for you!” w/ photos
