Black Eye Pea Salsa

One of my Honey Cafe customers requested this recipe. We served this southern salsa as a side with house fried chips. Also known as redneck caviar, cowboy caviar, and bean salad this is not a new recipe but a familiar staple at gatherings in the south.

Black Eye Pea Salsa

2 cans (15.8 oz) Black Eye Peas
1 can (10 oz) Rotel Tomatoes
6 Green Onions
1 Bell Pepper
1 c Kraft Zesty Italian
1/3 c Red Wine Vinegar
1 Tbs. Sugar
Dash Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder

Drain and rinse black eye peas and place in mixing bowl. Add Rotel with can juices. Chop green onion and bell pepper and add to bowl with remaining ingredients. Mix well. Chill and serve with crispy tortilla chips.
