Go Back

Cowboy Caviar

I’ve seen variations of this recipe many times, but this one has settled in to be our favorite.  This appetizer is a great one for a casual event.  Perfect for hosting some football!  I’ve also used it on top of BBQ chicken and it was delicious.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Bag frozen Sweet Corn (I like to use the Trader Joe’s frozen roasted corn)
  • 1 15oz. can Black Beans
  • 1 15oz. can White Beans
  • 3 Avocados
  • C – Cilantro, chopped
  • C – Onions, chopped
  • ½  C – Tomatoes, chopped
Marinade
  • C – Olive Oil
  • C – Red wine vinegar (or balsamic)
  • ¾ tsp – Salt
  • ¾ tsp – Pepper
  • 2 generous tsp – Cumin

Notes

Mix all ingredients (except avocados) and let marinate for an hour.  Before serving, add avocados.  Serve with tortilla chips and let the crowd go crazy.  It’s so good!  I’ve also made this recipe the night before and it was fine, just no avocados until just prior to serving.
