Easy Texas Caviar Recipe

This easy Texas Caviar recipe disappears quickly in my house. I make a huge batch and it is gone in like 24 hours. It is great on chips, but I also like to eat it like a salad. It is packed with so much healthy, wholesome goodness that I don't have to feel bad munching on it.

Texas Caviar Salsa

This Texas Caviar salsa is also a tricky way to get my daughter to eat her veggies... If I serve veggies as a dip with chips, she plows into it. If I just put it on her plate as a side dish, she would snub her nose at me. Ah... the joys of raising a teenager. Either way, she happily eats this stuff, so that makes me happy.

Jalapeño Chimichurri Sauce

I change this recipe up a bit by adding in kidney beans. They marinate well and are packed with nutrition. This is a sneaky way to make this dip even healthier and add a little extra flavor.

I also spice this recipe up a little more than the traditional recipe by adding extra jalapeños .. You know me, I add hot peppers to everything, like my  Jalapeño Chimichurri Sauce . But if you can't take the heat, just add in one jalapeño and omit the rest of peppers. You need at least one to give it a little kick.

This recipe is great for parties and entertaining. It makes a big batch at one time with relatively little effort. The freshness and color makes people go crazy over this. I have a homemade tortilla chip recipe that will really make this dip special. They are crazy crunchy and so much better than store bought. I suggest you make both!

Therefore, the next time you are trying to think of a good appetizer for your next backyard cookout, remember this spicy Texas Caviar recipe version! Enjoy!
