for 3 years now kristin has made up a big bowl of texas caviar on new years day. i love the stuff not only because it taste good but because it is also so good for you. i think i may go the entire day & eat nothing but texas caviar. i'll be a vegan for the day! i've already finished the bag of organic blue chips w/ flax seed (sounds great huh?) & moved on to the whole earth wheat chips (super healthy version of a triscuit). hopefully we'll have texas caviar more than once this year.

hope it was just as good as always. we actually were able to have some too today at a housewarming party we went to
i've eaten it all day just as i said i would. bring on the wealth in '08!
for those of you who would like the recipe, here it is:
texas caviar
2 cups (or so) or cooked or canned black eyed peas
1/2 - 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 green pepper diced
1/2 red or yellow pepper diced
1 medium onion diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped (or 1/4 tsp garlic powder)
2 tbsp fresh minced parsley
3 finely chopped jalapenos with or without seeds - your call
combine vinegar, salt, & pepper in bowl. pour oil into mix and beat until smooth. stir in remaining ingredients. cover and refrigerate for 2-3 days. will keep up to two weeks in fridge.
Looks good! Now that I am changing my eating habits there are never enough new recipes to try.
