TEXAS CAVIAR
Ingredients:
- 1 can reduced-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can reduced-sodium whole kernel corn, rinsed and drained
- 3/4 to 1 cup fresh salsa or pico de gallo
- 2 to 3 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 to 2 Tbsp finely chopped red onion
- 1 1/2 tsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp cumin
- dash of salt
- dash of ground black pepper
- touch of hot sauce, to taste
Directions:
Gently stir it all together and enjoy! This can be eaten as a side dish, as a lunch, or with baked Tostitos scoops as a snack (as pictured). 1/2 cup of this stuff (chips not included) only has about 100 calories, but is packed with 5 g protein and 4 gram fiber! So not only is it incredibly tasty (my husband's new favorite dish), but it's good for you too. Try it out!
We ate ours as a side dish with our grilled chicken and veggie kabobs:
To make the kabobs, we put chicken breast chunks on wooden skewers (that we had presoaked in water), then layered it with chunks of bell peppers (green, yellow, red), onions (red and white), and cucumber and tomato. We lightly seasoned them with salt, pepper, and garlic, then grilled them until desired doneness. So yummy!

This looks yummy! I would definitely go with the chip option, but they would taste good with the kebobs, too.
My mom makes this recipe often and it's so good and good for you. I'm going to have to try it.
We love texas caviar and we love to add avacados too.
