    I've made this Texas Caviar several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a can of drained corn for extra sweetness and texture.

    This is a fantastic recipe! I made it for a potluck and it was a huge hit. Everyone loved the fresh flavors and the slight kick from the jalapeños.

  • Hope Okuneva

    So easy and delicious! I appreciate that the recipe uses canned beans, which saves a lot of time. I will definitely be making this again.
