Cowboy Caviar: An Easy Healthy Snack for Everyone

Cowboy Caviar, sounds weird I know, but it’s the perfect easy, healthy snack/appetizer that everyone will love. I’m sure you’ve had some version of this before, but my mom made it for us last time we visited and I think we’ve made it every week since!

**red onion not pictured**

Ingredients:

  • 1 can organic black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can organic corn, drained
  • 1 can organic diced tomatoes w/ green chiles, drained (or Rotel – I use an organic version that I found at Harris Teeter)
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2-3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt (I use this Himalayan Pink Salt)
  • Pepper to taste
  • A few dashes of hot sauce to taste (I love Frank’s)
  • **Optional: 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (I add this if I have it but it’s just as good without it)

Instructions:

Add all of the ingredients into a large bowl except the extra virgin olive oil, lime juice, pepper, hot sauce and avocado, and stir to combine. Next add the extra virgin olive oil, lime juice, pepper and hot sauce and taste. Adjust seasonings accordingly. Add the avocado last and give it a final stir. It’s best to add the avocado at the end so it doesn’t get mushy when stirring. Chill in the fridge and serve with chips or on top of your favorite burrito bowl.
