     My recipe calls for black beans, black eyed peas, and shoe peg corn along with rotel (lime and cilantro). Yummy doesn't even begin to describe it. Addicting is a better word. I could almost eat it without chips! - 6/18/10

     This is addicting!! It is so good we eat it with & without chips! When made for parties it is the first to go. You can't make enough of it. - 6/18/10

     I make something similar with the black eyed peas and rotel tomatoes. We'll toss a little diced chicken on a salad and use this as dressing. Yummy - 6/18/10

     We love this with the black beans, black eyed peas. We even use the low fat Zesty Italian for convenience. Great for potlucks. And yes I eat it without chips too. - 6/18/10

     Adding black eyed peas beefs up the fiber and protein...and you need some kind of picante sauce for a kick! The heartiness and low calorie count is great, too. - 6/18/10

     Major complaint is this isn't a recipe for Cowboy Caviar, its a recipe for salsa. The main ingredient in both Cowboy Caviar and Texas Caviar is Black Eyed Peas. It got its name because the the eye on the black eyed pea resebled caviar. - 3/16/13
