It combines two types of beans, black beans and black eyed peas, with a colorful medley of fresh vegetables, and a tangy lime-balsamic vinaigrette. This Cowboy Caviar salsa is wonderfully fresh, healthy, simple and loaded! We make this salsa all summer long. It makes a big batch so it is an ideal summer party dip.
