This is really practiced and everyone loves it! The showtime fourth dimension I made this I left out the cilantro because i of the guests hates information technology, just I just fabricated it with the cilantro and it was fifty-fifty better. Merely change I made was to utilize ane/4 loving cup lime juice and ane/4 cup rice vinegar instead of the 1/two cup rice vinegar, mainly because I really like lime.

This recipe is awesome. I changed information technology a little. I reduced information technology past half and still got a medium bowl full. I used regular vinegar vs rice vinegar and used a piffling more sugar to brand up for the regular vinegar. My family unit could not get enough of it, ran out of scoop chips before I did the dip. Loved it and will make on a regular basis!

I took this recipe to a BBQ for the 4th and it received rave reviews. So many people commented that it was delicious and requested the recipe. I served it with tortilla chips, but people enjoyed scooping it up with celery, red pepper, and even used it as a condiment on their hot dogs and burgers! I cutting the recipe in half afterward reading other reviews and it still made plenty for the oversupply of 20 that were at the cookout. I did make the full corporeality of dressing, but reduced the amount of olive oil past i/2 since some people said information technology was besides oily. It came out great! Thank you for this wonderful recipe!

12/09 An almost guiltfree titbit I'm with the group saying the recipe makes too much.I used 1black,1pinto,1corn,4oz chiles,1jalepeno(which was like adding more green if it's seeded & cored well.I added another not as well emptied.Improved much.Then had a little kick.); half scarlet,half green,one-half onion,half dressing(Half of the half amont of oil - meaning ane/8c.That's a coffeescoop,btw)In dressing I tried half vinegar,half limejuice 1T saccharide&1t fresh garlic.I couldn't taste the vinegar, which I liked;simply not the lime likewise much either.What I'm going to practise next time is a can of blackness&pinto,tin can of corn;4oz chiles;whole green&red pepper;2jalepenos;bunch of cilantro;a loving cup of red onion;simply lime juice&a clove or two of fresh garlic with 1/8c olive oil.Seems to me the sugar would brand the veggies cry more.Y'all want some,merely not to encourage.Gonna add together tomatoes,also. First fourth dimension around was good,but too beany.Think more than veggies will balance it better.Might even endeavour serving room temperature with refried beans to assist bind the babies together.It tends to leap.4/12 'Tried again.Not and then impressed this time.No, bang-up;merely no wows either.Did 1black,1pinto,2 greenish peppers,2japs,one/2c cherry onion,1c corn, one/2bunch cilantro (bout 1c),2plum toms, 3cl garlic,1t kosher salt,1T olive oil,3T lime juice,a T chipolte pepper w adobo sauce,i/4t cayenne.Not so pretty ;D but still pretty good for you (Win!).Soo,if I make again,I'll add more lime juice&more spice.This is one to play with. 3 one/ii stsrs

I agree it makes a lot, I would cutting in one-half next time. I did every bit the other member did used regular vinegar and little more saccharide and it was wonderful Awesome recipe

Great recipe, I would recommend using simply half the amount of beans and corn, but exact amounts of everything else. Boot information technology up a bit with some "Frank's Red Hot". This is great party food, yous volition get a lot of compliments.

ive used italian dressing to make information technology easier and information technology is truly a oversupply pleaser

Crawly. This recipe got raves from all of my boyfriend's friends at our UFC gathering. I use my food processor to chop up the onion and peppers. I too used 2 cans of diced tomatoes with dark-green chilies, juices drained.

Aye, this does make a lot, just that was a good matter because at the potluck I took this to, many people were eating it as a side rather than a dip. Not bad make ahead dish - I tossed information technology all together and kept information technology in the refrigerator for 24 hours before serving and it had a keen flavor. The beans had softened up a bit, merely that was a good matter, in my opinion. Only changes I made were a little less oil and I tossed in two chopped avocados right before serving.

I've been using this recipe as a base for my Texas Caviar for awhile now. Fixed information technology for my card club for the showtime fourth dimension and had several "volunteer" to take some home with them (and request that I give them the recipe). Yous really can mix up the ingredients any style you desire. It is the dressing that makes all the difference. The only change I make to it is that I utilize seasoned rice vinegar. Just mode better than the Italian dressing! UPDATE: This is still my favorite and crowd favorite. I never use the Pinto beans. We merely don't like them. What separates this recipe from all the rest is the rice vinegar mixture (I utilize seasoned rice vinegar) - Do NOT USE ITALIAN DRESSING. That makes this recipe like all the residue, which are proficient - just not as proficient as this.

I similar the size of this recipe. I followed the recipe, except I utilise a handbag of frozen yellow corn. Information technology tastes great and is more colorful. It freezes well, and so I put 8 to 16 0z containers of it in the freezer. Then when we have company or merely have a craving, I only thaw it out. It tastes like I just made it.

Very pretty dish! I cut the recipe in half and still filled a medium-size bowl. It keeps well in the refrigerator though and so I don't mind the leftovers. I didn't accept pinto beans so used kidney beans instead and information technology was fine. Also, when I tasted the dressing, information technology seemed just a tad bit olive oil-y then I added a squirt of "Zesty Italian" dressing and that was adept. We ate this as a side dish with Black Edible bean and Rice Enchiladas and also as a dip with tortilla fries. I prefer information technology with the fries merely hubby liked it all by itself!

I loved this! I made it on a sunday and ate information technology equally a snack throughout the week. Like others, I halved the recipe and it was plenty. I used seasoned rice vinegar and omitted the step where you have to oestrus the vinegar and carbohydrate. Seasoned vinegar substantially does that for y'all. No need to add saccharide at all. I used less oil, just more vinegar (I like things extra tangy). It could have been a tad spicier, and then adjacent time I will use more jalapeño and/or green chilies. I also used blackness eyed peas instead of pinto beans. YUM!

Very adept recipe, just I will definitely cut it in half side by side time unless I'thousand serving a huge crowd! When I make it once again, I will reduce the oil by half, reduce the pinto beans by one-half and add chopped avocado. Very proficient with tortilla chips and BF liked it piled on acme of the Salsa Craven recipe from this site. Thank you for sharing this great recipe!

I know how it frustrates some users (myself included) when folk rate a recipe afterwards making substantive modifications, but here goes. I wanted to pass along some culling directions, using fresh (rather than canned) ingredients. I used one pound each of fresh blackness-eyed peas and fresh black beans (simmered for most 45 mins in lightly salted h2o) and the kernels from five ears of fresh sweet corn (boiled for well-nigh six minutes). I also substituted one "sweet Texas" onion for the purple onion and added two avocados (both "chunked"). Other than those changes, I followed the recipe more than or less exactly. Oh ... I added the juice of two limes and a scant tablespoon of salt (to recoup for the table salt otherwise supplied by the canned beans and corn). Very tasty!

I gave this iii stars because I changed up the recipe to my own tastes. I fabricated the sauce but after tasting it, the sauce is just way also sweetness! Who wants sweetness and sour Mexican food? I prefer spicy, salty, lime flavor myself. I didn't apply canned beans (used dried and precooked myself), used fresh corn, roasted my ain green chili'southward on the grill, added fresh diced avocado, white onions, fresh garlic and cilantro. I used a drizzle of olive oil, lots of fresh lime juice and some juice from a can of jalapenos I had on manus. I completely skipped the sugariness bong peppers, sweet red onion, sweet vinegar, and saccharide. Made my way, it was fantastic! Served information technology over barley I had precooked and then sauteed with garlic, CA chili and cumin. It made the all-time taco'south e'er! Thanks for the recipe. Equally a relatively new vegetarian I've been struggling to observe things I tin brand with flavors I love that don't include meat. This recipe sparked my creativity and although I didn't intendance for it as written, it was a starting point for something I will make again and once more. Cheers!

Nifty recipe, and perfect for a crowd equally it makes a ton ! Not merely practiced to scoop upwards with fries, it's a healthy side dish. I fabricated turkey tacos and stuffed the tortilla with turkey, Mexican rice, Texas caviar, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream. My boys loved it. I did add some cumin, paprika, nuance chili powder, splash of fresh lime juice, and fresh black pepper as well to the recipe.

Healthy and succulent! Great served wth whole wheat scoops. Yum!

Loved this, works cracking as a dip, side dish or taco topping. I used blackness eyed peas instead of pinto beans and added a little table salt and pepper to the dressing. My jalepeno was a little mild, next time I'd use two.

I doubled it for a 100 guest sus scrofa roast. Simply ii changes - used 1 can pinto and 1 tin can small white beans instead of 2 cans pinto beans and added ii diced avacados. I fabricated it the twenty-four hour period earlier and everyone loved it, just it even got better with 1 more day of allowing the flavors to develop and ally. And then, if possible make two days in advance. You lot will not be disappointed.

I added diced tomatoes and garbanzo instead of pinto.

I made this for my vegetarian, eighth class girl's school lunch. She and her friends liked it so much they all asked for the recipe. I've been asked to brand information technology for her "lunch tabular array" several times already this schoolhouse year.

I never ever rate a recipe without eating a portion, simply this is the one exception. I made the dressing as written, simply the aroma was absolutely atrocious and the season was even worse. If there was a recipe for "stinky gym sock edible bean salad" this would be information technology.

Very yummy dip, perfect for pairing with fajitas. I contradistinct the recipe slightly following some of the other reviewers; I split the recipe in 1/2 with exception of the green chiles, prepped the peppers and onion in a food processor, added in a tin of drained diced tomatoes and a can of drained sliced black olives. For the dressing I used pre-made italian (i/2 a cup) for ease.

all i can say is FANTASTIC!

Friend brought this dish to a picnic. Crawly food. Will be making this all the fourth dimension.

YUM. though, unless you're expecting A LOT of visitor - definitely halve the recipe. A one-half recipe nevertheless makes a giant bowl.

This was Grrrrreat! Everyone went on & on about this! Swell summertime dish for parties!

I fabricated this to take to a Daytona 500 party and anybody raved about it. It did brand a lot but I'm okay with that. I have been taking leftovers to work and putting it on my salad at lunch time. Fabulous!

I received this recipe from a friend subsequently eating this dip at her dwelling. I prepared it at my house and many friends loved information technology. This recipe does make quite a bit of bean dip so y'all can share.

YUM! I added some cold, cooked rice and made this into a salad. With some lime juice and sriracha for added "oomph" this was absolutely delicious. I halved the recipe and information technology still made tons, but it was then proficient I could have virtually finished it off myself!

This was fantastic.. This recipe makes a HUGE, HUGE portion. One-half information technology unless you are having a party...

I loved this recipe!! I wanted to cut it in half, but ended upward only cutting the beans in half and it withal turned out swell! I guess that's what you get when you are making a new recipe with kids nether your feet! :)

This is 1 of our favorite recipes for this "Texas Caviar" I also half the ingredients - along with the liquid as if yous use full it is was to oily - besides used canned jalpenos. Always a crowd pleaser We have a basin in the refrigerator at all times. GOOD Expert Adept

so good, top your salad with information technology and yous have a unique lunch.

So proficient. This has a niggling seize with teeth which I honey.

Awesome!!! I did have the beans and corn as suggested. It made plenty. I used garbanzo beans instead of pinto, just a personal preference. I would suggest also halving the dressing too, I had to dump some out because information technology was too juicey. I definitly would take the time to brand your own dressing...its so much tastier than the italian dressing! Dear THIS!!

This is the All-time fresh edible bean dip/titbit ever! Used chickpeas instead of black-eyed peas. Used the juice of one lime. EXCELLENT.

excellent flavor, easy to make. I added a tin can of black beans and chopped red pepper to add color. volition make this over again!

Yum Yum!! Cut recipe in half, only used the whole can of dark-green chiles, and the whole jalapeno pepper. Did not brand the sauce given in recipe, but used half a canteen of Zesty Italian. Served with Tostito bowls with a hint of jalapeno, got rave reviews. Thanks so much for a nifty recipe Cassgirl 89

Fantastic recipe! I have made information technology several times over the years and it always gets rave reviews! As others accept said, the recipe every bit written makes a ton! If possible, brand it a day in advance to allow all of the different flavors a take a chance to blend together, information technology's as close to a guaranteed hit equally you will have at whatever get together!

I love salsas and this is a bang-up twist with a squeamish kicking. It is crawly and fresh tasting. I used apple cider vinegar rather than rice vinegar and a little lemon juice and skipped the saccharide. Besides used the canned tomatoes with the chillies in them for a little actress veggies. Great for equally a side salad or in a wrap likewise!

Splendid! Substituted cider vinegar for the rice vinegar. As well used 2 jalapeno peppers the second time I made it, which gave it a little more zip. We like information technology with corn scoops too.

Should be chosen "Fissure" Texas Caviar...it is that good. Used granulated Splenda instead of sugar. Made five servings but kept the 10-serving amounts of bell peppers, onions, vinegar and chile peppers. Besides threw in one/2 can of garbanzo beans I had left over. Fantastic!

Made this for a family party - it was ok. Everyone liked information technology - but it didn't get rave reviews. I added some spices and tomato because i thought information technology to be a bit banal - and even afterward that I still institute it to be a bit bland. Will I make it over again? Perchance - just it definitely needs tweaked.

Excellent! I served this recently at a Mexican themed birthday party for my husband and got many compliments. I fabricated the dark before. A few people even took some home. This will exist a regular for us from now on.

Soooo good! I took this dish to a party and people kept talking about how good it was. It has a nice fresh taste. I cut the recipe in half for a group of near 20, and it was withal plenty! I was sad when nosotros ran out of chips.

This was one of the prettiest dishes I've ever prepared. I used one cherry-red and one orange pepper (they were on sale) Anybody loved this , I served it as a side to sandwiches. I volition definately prepare this frequently, information technology's like shooting fish in a barrel and salubrious. Will exist corking at a summertime barbeque.

Used black eyed peas. Forgot the green chiles. Anybody still liked information technology. Did make one-half size and was plenty for the labor day party.

Very expert recipe, half information technology and it still makes a big bowl. I will omit sugar, I simply put 1tbsp. due to other ratings and the saccharide does non belong. I'm draining it and redoing marinade without saccharide. I also added ground cumin to sense of taste, about 2tsp.

Very practiced. Dandy to bring for an out door party. I did leave out the jalapeno.

This is the all-time one really!!!!!!

Although this makes WAY more than than 10 servings (I would say closer to 30) it is fantastic. I brand it but the mode the recipe reads, and take never been disappointed. This is bang-up for cookouts, parties, or even just snacking.

I make this whenever I demand to bring a dish to share at work or family potlucks. It makes a ton, so information technology is perfect for sharing. It has been a hit every time I have tried it.

I've tried manh Texas Caviar recipes and this one is the very best. My hubby doesn't usually like this type of dip merely he loves this ane. Thank you CASSGIRL for sharing. cookngal

Made a agglomeration and got better as the twenty-four hours went... Huge hit.

This recipe is groovy and was a hitting at my Bunco political party! Like shooting fish in a barrel to put together. I added two plum tomatoes with mine. I did have lots leftover, but I'm okay with that. I'thousand only glad I have chips leftover too! :)

Loved this recipe. Added avocado at the end with some more lime, as well as fresh chopped tomato. The recipe is keen as is for a large party, just equally suggested, I would cut this in one-half for my own family. Smashing as a dip or a side dish.

I similar an attack on my tastebuds, so I add about 2.five tsp of ground cumin, increment the garlic powder to 2 tsp and double the rice vinegar. I omit the oil and reduce the sugar to most ane Tbs. Healthy and full-flavored!

Excellent dip with tortilla chips. Even better the next twenty-four hour period!

My family couldn't get enough of this at Super Bowl. I subbed black centre peas for the corn-merely personal preference. Also added garlic powder and some hot pepper sauce to kick it up. Nosotros love this with corn chip scoops.

So good! I added a can of tuckered chopped tomatoes w/chilies and skipped the can of chilies. I used a sugariness onion and did not demand any boosted sugar. I too added some feta and avocado at the end. Served with some abode baked torilla chips for a low fat high fiber treat. Great recipe for a crowd!

I made this to serve at our business firm to eat while watching a football game and we almost finished it an hour before the start of the game! THIS WAS DELICIOUS!! Served with lime chips and was a hit. I didn't make whatsoever changes and it was awesome as is! I'm definitely making this once again in the future!!!

very calorie-free and perfect for the summer. Everyone loved it and the dressing is very good.

Dandy for a political party. I cutting down the ingredients and information technology even so made a lot. Very delicious! I served information technology with tortilla chips.

This is wonderful! And so I wrapped it up in Jalapeno-Cheddar soft tortilla with sour cream, lettuce and a footling turkey and it made a fabled wrap! A recipe volition give u.s.a. lunches for a week.

I dearest this recipe. Information technology's the best.It refrigerates for quite awhile so is ideal for snacks and easy lunches. Information technology's fantastic with corn chips or with avocado and cheese in a wrap. Endeavor adding some cumin!

I brought this to a superbowl party and it was a hit although I thought it lacked 'personality'. I did style less corn, I only did black beans, and I added some table salt and some garlic to information technology. It was skilful but not great.

This recipe was a not bad base for the way I like Texas Caviar. I ended up using two cans of black beans and 1 can of corn, so halved the remainder of the ingredients. I added 1 tomato, diced and seeded and 1 avocado. Like another reviewer, I halved the dressing, and still found information technology to be likewise much. I also added ane/two tsp footing cumin and i/4 tsp footing corriander to the dressing and substituted 2 cloves minced garlic for the garlic pulverization. I similar how this recipe boils the dressing and then lets information technology cool; that mellowed the flavor of the garlic a flake. With these additions, I requite it v stars! Perfect "side" to bring to parties and BBQs!

This recipe was corking, just I highly recommend that you half this recipe! I read the other comments and thought that since I was having a political party I should go out it. I was wrong. I have a ton left!!!

I skip the green pepper and employ an orange or yellow. I as well use green onions for the onion. I utilise a 1/2 loving cup to 3/4 cup of carbohydrate and 1 cup of oil. I aldo incorporate 2 cloves of minced garlic into bean mixture and skip powdered garlic. I take not tried this with cilantro although I do like cilantro.

My husband merely can't get enough of this salsa. I add about 1/2 tsp of cumin and use basalmic vinegar. Great on a hot summer twenty-four hour period.

Great in the summer with some corn chips.

I also halved this and used italian dressing for ease. Sooo skilful! One of the toppings on my favorite salad is this stuff! This could exist then versatile.

People always request this one for parties.

Splendid! Went well with Turkey Burgers.

Very Very Practiced. Lots of season without lots of heat.

Very good! I doesn't Wait then yummy, but in one case people start eating it, they can't cease!!

Sorry, but I found this to be WAY too sweet.

Definitely one-half the recipe, even for a party. Even one-half makes a rather large serving. I e'er add a diced avocado and tomato right before serving. Information technology's ever a hit. I add an extra jalapeño, a chip of cumin, cayenne (if it'south not spicy enough) and more than garlic. I endeavour to make it the twenty-four hours before considering it needs some time for time for the flavors to meld together.

I thought this was pretty skillful the first nighttime, just it was delicious the next day. I served it as a side dish (no fries), and I modified it somewhat based on personal preference: I omitted the pinto beans; added tomatoes and nopalitos (pickled cactus); used fresh corn and garlic; used freshly roasted Hatch green chiles ('tis the season in NM); subbed agave for sugar; and didn't melt the dressing. I thought information technology was a touch too sweet the outset dark, but by the next day the flavors had blended and the rut of the chiles really came out.

This is the BEST appetizer always! Every time I bring it somewhere I get asked for the recipe. Once I was asked nigh 1 infinitesimal after placing it on the table! It is so easy to make and information technology makes a ton. I use black eyed peas in place of the pinto beans. We even put information technology on our burgers sometimes! Love it!!!!

This is skillful, a little sweet. I added another jalapeno and some red pepper flakes to add more kick. My married man loved information technology, asked me to pack it in his lunch.

Christmas Eve - served with fresh baked pita chips and scoop tortilla fries. A hit!

Yum!! I made this for my husband's co-workers - they loved it! I used Stevia instead of saccharide and added some cumin.

This was a large hit as a summer snacker at our family's lake firm. This tin be made and snacked on over the course of a couple of days.

Oh this is soooo yummy. My family unit couldn't stop eating it at Thanksgiving. They were most also full for turkey! I did brand changes as I see many accept. I used 2 cans of mixed beans, a "bunch" of cilantro which was probably a trivial over a 1/4 loving cup, half a medium crimson bell pepper and half a green one and a whole minor cerise onion. I used most two tablespoons of pickled hot jalepenos, four cloves of garlic finely minced and substituted lime juice for the rice vinegar. I also omitted the sugar and so didn't cook the mixture showtime only shook the lime juice and o o in a bottle to emulsify. I also made it the twenty-four hours before to let the flavours meld. Was a real hit then much less expensive to make than our other favourite - seven layer dip! Easier on the waistline also!!

This is the all-time salsa mix ever! I bring this to every BBQ or family event I go to and I never have any that I come home with.

It's not Texas Caviar without black-eyed peas, so I didn't even consider using black and pinto beans in this. (Non that I don't like both, but they're not for this dish) Used frozen corn and apple tree cider vinegar in place of rice vinegar. Very, very good, although this corporeality of sugar definitely ways this is a pretty sweet dish. Employ less sugar if you want the flavor to be entirely savory.

LOVED this recipe!! Took it to a graduation party (1st time I ever made information technology) and anybody was asking for the recipe. I recollect I'll try calculation avocado adjacent time. This recipe makes a HUGE corporeality. I would cut in half if using as a dip (the whole amount makes a big "salad" :) It is very pretty with all the colors. Lots of chopping involved, although not a difficult recipe, just fourth dimension consuming!

This was easy and delicious. I used Bush-league'south depression sodium beans to cut down on the sodium a petty, and didn't miss any season. I also added 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime juice (because I had it handy). I fabricated it to bring to my in-laws and was immediately told that some of them don't consume beans. Well, they ate this like crazy - ha ha! Dandy recipe - I'm planning to make more next weekend!

Made this for a family unit get together. Everyone seemed to like it, though no ane raved. I thought is was a little bland but the basic recipe was good. I added another 1/2 jalepeno, and a footling garlic powder..I thought it helped. Probably would make over again with modifcations.

Really liked this recipe. I read the reviews and took some suggestions. I used navy beans instead of pinto beans, and half the cilantro suggested per my personal gustatory modality. But complaint was likewise much oil. I will cut back on that next time I make it. There will be a next time.

Admittedly delicious! I always stayed away from making Texas caviar because of the apply of Italian dressing, which I practice not care for. So, when I saw this one I had to make information technology and it did non disappoint at all. I did have to sub kidney beans for the pinto beans, because that is all I had on hand, simply I tin can't expect to try it with the pinto beans next time. The flavors are perfect. It goes well with tortilla chips or but plain...either way it is going to be my go to salad/salsa for the summer. Thanks a million!

Beloved dear this! No one tin can say they dont enjoy this, and once youve made information technology once, you hardly need to expect at the recipe. I would love to endeavour new variations, just dont desire to mess with something thats already not bad.
