Kentucky Caviar 

This crazy Yankee finally had some black-eyed peas and yum. What a beautiful dish!

I always add fresh Cilantro, Basil, and Parsley(chopped). Lime or Lemon juice gives it a little zing, too! Love y’all❣️

We call it Cowboy Caviar.. but, I’m drooling… absolutely love this recipe..

I subscribed Immediately. I have cooked Professionally for over 20 years. Though when my Mother introduced this recipe to me around 2015 (We knew it as Texas Caviar, Rest In Peace Mom!) I was skeptical about it At First, but it is an Amazing Recipe. What I really like about it is that you can use your imagination and add a lot of different ingredients to make Many different variations. I would use black eyed peas but also other types of beans on occasion like black beans and white beans. Also I really liked to add in Fresh Herbs like Cilantro and Oregano maybe some Thyme. Also Garlic real Garlic either Raw and or Roasted. Oh and for myself I might take some aside and add some thinly sliced Habanero. Just so many possibilities. It Is a Great Recipe!!! It was definitely a Crowd Pleaser.

Delicious and so versatile. I have added cilantro, red onions, diced green chilies, parsley, jalepenos, garlic, sliced black olives, and different kinds of beans and tomatoes, you cant screw this up!

I love how she jumps in with, "I'm not a wimp, I like the medium!"

I make a similar one with black beans , shoe peg corn, Roma tomatoes, purple onions, green onions, red, orange, green & yellow bell peppers, 1-or more jalapeño peppers depending on how hot you want it….I usually just stick with one for ourselves, balsamic vinegar and freshly chopped cilantro. It’s a lot of chopping of veggies as you want them chopped fine….but it’s worth it. I will try yours too. I love this kind of stuff

Definitely going to try this recipe for this summers cookouts. I'll separate it into thirds before adding the Rotel tomatoes, and make 1 dish for each rotel - mild, original and hot. That way everyone gets their preference. I love the fact it can be made ahead of time.

Love black eyed peas

I did the math & it comes out to 68 calories per 1/2 cup. The chips are the killers for dieting!! I could eat this all day! Each serving of tortilla chips is "usually" 140 calories. I could eat this all day & STILL lose weight!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Love that there is no salt or sugar in this recipe. So healthy and the fact that it lasts so long in the fridge is awesome

I love black eyed peas! This is such a colorful healthy dip!

Thank you! I used to make this with black beans and chopped cilantro. I just put the ingredients of my grocery list. I’ll be making taco salads and this is really yummy!

I love black eyed peas!!

That looks amazing!! Definitely want to try it

This Kentucky Caviar recipe looks so delicious 😋 Mr. Tom.

Wow! Exactly the dish I need for a gathering! Can't wait to get the ingredients and put this together. Thanks

Been making a similar dish for years here in Baton Rouge but instead of black eye peas I use rinsed & drained black beans and instead of banana peppers use chopped fresh jalapeños. 😋

I’m not a fan of black eyed peas but I love it in this recipe. A coworker would bring it in and his wife called it Cowboy Caviar. Their recipe had cilantro in it but everything else was the same. Your cooking videos are so calming. Thank you again!

I love the way you cook and the way you show what all you do. I love your videos. You explain and you put all ingredients you use at the bottom of video.

I found this video by accident and I’m so glad I did. Went to the store for all ingredients so I’ll be making this recipe very soon. Thank you 😊Merry Christmas 🎄

I made this and my husband and I love it. We even made it this summer with veggies from our garden. Thanks for the recipe.

This is a beautiful dish! I think I will fix a big amount and put it in mason jars and give out to my neighbors and co-workers around Christmas! ❤

This would be great for breakfast over a 3 egg cheese omelette, with a piece of sourdough toast!

I could eat that right out of the bowl! One of my favs!

Nice thank you 😊. Have a great time with your friends. Have a great day everyone, stay strong and be safe 🙏.

We call this cowboy caviar in Texas. I don't use Rotel, I slice grape tomatoes in half. We use 1 can of black eyed peas & one of black beans. I also add red wine vinegar to the Italian dressing. Both purple & green onion. I've never used banana peppers, but will add them next time if I remember. When I was a kid I sometimes spent summers with my half sister in Indiana, & silver queen white sweet corn was so fabulous! I still dream about that & muskmelons!

I would think you could use this on lots of things, Tacos 🌮, over Mexican food, like Pico d Gallo, Taco Salad 🥗 etc. Thank you for sharing this recipe. ❤

This looks so good. Im so happy i found you guys. Everything you make looks delicious. You make so easy to follow the directions and see all the ingredients we will need. And i really must tell you that you are so pleasant to watch and listen to. Thank you both.😊❤😊

I like making my home made taco sauce. I live here in eastern Kentucky. I went to morehead Kroger and got a rotel chilis and tomatoes, two cans no salt tomato sauce, I put the can of rotel in the blender, then add one teaspoon minced garlic, tea spoon of cilantro, one table spoon date sugar or what ever you want if you want to use for sweetness, table spoon of lemon juice or lime or cirtron juice, one table spoon of smoky Mexican hot sauce, blend until smooth. Put in a pot for the sauce add two cans of the no salt tomato sauce, add a tea spoon of cumin, tea spoon of onion powder and for a kick I like to add a tea spoon of cayenne pepper. Then stir on stove cap till mixed cook fifteen minutes on low to medium heat. The rest can be put in a jar in the fridge or plastic bowl to be frozen for later use. Goes great on tacos, and chicken in mole sauce on whole grain tortillas. If you want it extra smoky or robust adding a table spoon instead of the teaspoon of cumin could do that. Change it up to suit your taste. If you can take salt you may want to add a pinch or so of that. So this can be a hit or miss thing depends on personal preference, I like it a bit spicy.

This will ne good with Mexican food. Yummy 😋. Thanks.

I actually make this with fresh tomatoes, black beans, cilantro and lemon juice. Because it gives off so much liquid, we use it as a dressing for romaine or chopped salad! It really is wonderful. Never knew it was called, “Kentucky caviar” as I’m from Hawaii! What a sweet couple you are. Nice channel! Thank you!

This seems really healthy! I think I will add a extra can of corn, because I love the crisp corn!!!

Church food is always the best. It's always interesting to see the variety. Yummy 😊😊

I have just discovered your channel and I love everything you are doing. I like to call myself a food connoisseur, I love making different kinds of foods to eat and watch the faces on my friends' faces when they love what they are eating.

I just love watching your food videos! Y'all keep it simple...

Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe I love it!!!!

I LOVE YOUR SHIRT!! Got one to match!😂❤~ Mamaw Christy 🥰 😎

Thank you for this recipe !!!!

I just discovered your channel and subscribed. I am bingeing on all your videos! TY for such uncomplicated and great recipes ❤

Looks delicious!!! And it looks like a keeper!!!

This would be great as a bruschetta on some toasted bread with olive oil… especially if you some chicken or bacon. Boom now it’s a meal

I think I had this at an office potluck once, but they added chunks of avacado also. It was super good, but I didn't know what it was called, so I have never been able to remember what else was in it, but this is definitely it! Thank you I am going to make this tomorrow! I can almost smell it and taste it right now! I'm so excited! My family will love it. Thank you!

I'm saving this because it's so healthy! I'm on a whole food plant based diet, no oil, to improve my health. This diet keeps my systemic lupus and diabetes in total remission. I'll use fat-free zesty Italian dressing. LOVE IT!

Looks great gotta try it!

Your recipes are always so delicious and interesting. TY for sharing the recipes with us

I will try this! Please try my recipe for Cowboy Caviar! I think you will love it! I use only dried beans. I soak them in water to cover, overnight. Then simmer till tender. Or, if you forget to soak them overnight, simmer dried beans for two minutes and turn off heat. Cover, and let sit for 2 hours. Simmer till tender. And I only use frozen corn, as canned corn tastes soggy. Also, I now toss with the dressing right before serving, if I make the night before. Otherwise, the oil gets congealed and thick. If you ask me, the trick to the best possible cowboy caviar is to dice the ingredients that need dicing (the tomatoes, onion, pepper, etc - not the beans!) very small, the smaller the better. Try to keep your tomato and avocado pieces petite rather than big and chunky (about bean-sized works great!). 3 Roma tomatoes , seeds removed, diced 2 ripe avocados diced 1 15 oz can black beans , rinsed and drained 1 15 oz can black eyed peas , rinsed and drained 1 ½ cups frozen sweet corn , thawed (I just usually toss it in the salad frozen unless I plan on eating it immediately, it thaws quite quickly). 1 bell pepper , diced (I used half a green and half a red, but color doesn’t matter) ⅓ cup red onion , diced 1 jalapeno pepper , seeds removed, diced into very small pieces ⅓ cup Cilantro , finely chopped DRESSING ⅓ cup olive oil 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar 2 Tablespoons lime juice (fresh preferred) 1 teaspoon sugar ½ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon pepper 1/4 tsp garlic powder Tortilla chips , for serving Combine tomatoes, avocado, onion, black beans, black eyed peas, corn, pepper, jalapeno pepper, and cilantro in a large bowl. Toss/stir well so that ingredients are well-combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, red wine vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Pour dressing over other ingredients and stir/toss very well. Keep refrigerated. If not serving immediately, be sure to toss/stir well before serving.

I love this recipe. I plan to make it ASAP!!

Going to make for after Thanksgiving to get the turkey used up with turkey sandwiches and this dip. Everyone is always ready for something spicy after Turkey and dressing day. Thank you for sharing, and keep the postings coming.

I think of black eyed peas like I think of bacon. "Either you like bacon or you're wrong!" or "if loving it is wrong, I don't wanna be right!"😂

Yummy love your recipes Yummy
