For a smoother texture, pulse a small amount of the black-eyed peas and black beans in a food processor before adding to the mixture. Adjust the amount of jalapeño peppers to control the level of spiciness. For a vegetarian option, ensure the Italian dressing is vegetarian-friendly. This caviar is even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together. To prevent the avocado from browning, toss it with a little lime juice before adding it to the salad.
