This Was Good: Cowboy Caviar Salad



This Was Good: Cowboy Caviar Salad With Avocado Slices

2 cans black-eyed peas,drained
2 cans of white corn, drained
4 Tablespoons of fresh chopped cilantro or fresh chopped Italian parsley
1 bunch of green onions, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
1 cup of cherry tomatoes (or any tomatoes) chopped
1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of any Italian style dressing
salt and pepper to taste
Combine above ingredients in bowl. Let marinate for at least 1/2 hour to blend.
***
When serving garnish salad with freshly peeled and sliced avocado slices.
(I bought 2 avocados--used one for first serving, and one for second serving. If making for a crowd, place salad on platter and garnish with avocado slices at last minute.)


Note: I Adapted this recipe from one I found on blog of second cousin Mike Gariety of Modesto, CA.
