How To Make texas caviar

  • 1
    Rinse and drain all beans. Drain the can of corn.
  • 2
    Dice red and green bell peppers and green onions. Take the seeds out of the jalapeno and finely dice. Chop cilantro to measure 1/4 cup or to taste.
  • 3
    Add all ingredients to a large bowl. Sprinkle garlic powder over top and mix well.
  • 4
    Pour the oil off the top of the Italian dressing. Add to bowl and mix again. Refrigerate until ready to serve. I like to make it at least a few hours ahead so the flavors have time to meld. Serve with tortilla chips.
