Caviar of course, but way cheaper!

Happy New Year! Black eyed peas are a must on January 1st, and I made my version of Cowboy Caviar. It's one of those dump, chop and stir recipes I love. I've seen many versions of this caviar... which thankfully has no trace of those briny fish eggs. You might have heard it called Redneck Caviar. 
What you'll need:
*2 cans corn, or use frozen thawed
*2 cans tomatoes with green chilies
*2 cans of black-eyed peas, rinsed
*Red onion, minced, quarter cup
*1 jalapeño minced, seeded if you can't take heat
*Cilantro, chopped, quarter cup
*Salt, pepper, sugar..a pinch of each
*a lime to squeeze over everything 

Mix in a bowl and chill for at least an hour. This is so good with tortilla chips while watching a football game. Or it would be a great topper to pork chops or even fish.

Happy New Year!
