Classic Texas Caviar
I adapted this texas caviar from one in a cookbook I received a long time ago, and now, I can't imagine a get-together at my house without this quick and healthy appetizer. —Becky Oliver, Fairplay, Colorado

This was tasty. I think I’d enjoy it more wih a variety of beans, not just chick peas. Will definitely try it again.
My grandma used to always call this Cowboy Caviar - this recipe reminded me exactly of what she would make. Super easy and a real crowd-pleaser for any potluck. Definitely make sure to add the avocado last so it doesn't brown up/get bruised from the mixing.
I love this easy recipe, it is a great item to make and take to gatherings. My dish is always empty when I take it home.
Excellent! I leave out the avocado just because I don't like avocado...otherwise this recipe is quick and easy to make and its delicious! I have served it at a couple of different gatherings and always get compliments.
Love this recipe! And everyone who tries it loves it, too. And it's pretty healthy I think. Maybe not the chips though.
