This is very good. It makes a HUGE bowl... a lot more than shown in the pic, at least 10 servings. I added the zest and juice of one lime, and made sure to add enough cilantro that you got some in each bite!

Quick, easy, and delicious. Any time I bring this to a party I have to bring recipe cards with it - everyone loves it. I serve it with plain pita chips.

This was great! I made just a couple changes, but I'm sure if you followed the recipe it'd be just as great! I didn't add as much italian dressing, and added a little more garlic salt. Next time I think I'll use fresh grape tomatos instead of canned diced. I served this as an appetizer on taco night and it was definitely a hit!

Love this recipe. I use pintos instead of black eyed peas and also use red/orange bell pepper (personal preference and it gived it great color). I was skeptical the first time I read this recipe regarding the Italian Dressing....but it is great! The last time I made this, I made it a fancy appetizer by adding rock shrimp and serving in a martini glass....very versatile..thanks Pam for posting!

Very Good!! Made 30 hours in advance of party. I was worried that might have been too far in advance...but it was excellent. Many comments and questions on the recipe. For the Italian dressing I used the 'good seasons' dressing packet mix. To keep Italian dressing from separating, I first whirled dressing for a couple of seconds in blender prior to pouring over beans. I used the trades joe's frozen fire roasted corn, as was previously suggested. The fire roasted flavor was great addition. (someone even asked me how I had roasted the corn) I served this as an appetizer with Tostitos white corn chip scoops. I was planning to serve with Fritos scoops, but when I sampled it with the Fritos, it really overpowered it and made it taste 'off'. Luckily I had time to send my son to the store to pick up other chips :) The tostitos scoops are lighter and seemed to play better with the marinade. It says serving size of 8, but as an appetizer it serves more like 20. I've had similar appetizers, but this one is a great recipe. Thanks!

YUMMY!!!! I like to call this redneck caviar...being from the south. I could eat this stuff everyday, and it is good for you too! Made exactly as the recipe was written. Don't leave out the black eyed peas like other have said. Trust me, I really don't care for them either, but they don't taste like black eyed peas when they are mixed up with everything. You will love it!

Super easy and very good. This recipe always gets compliments and is eaten up. Like others I used only 1/2 cup calorie wise Kraft Zesty Italian dressing. I also omit the black eyed peas and use pinto beans or more black beans also add a diced red pepper. I have also turned this in to a great chicken chili recipe. I add this recipe ( I use the 1 cup dressing for this) plus 3 cubes chicken breasts in slow cooker on high for 5-6 hours

Of all the cowboy caviar-type recipes here on allrecipes, I've found this one best suits my tastes and it's a huge hit at our church dinners. Pastor can't get enough :) I make it exactly as posted, only exchanging all black beans since black-eyed peas aren't a favorite with me. Thanks so much for sharing!

I've been making this recipe for years. So good. I have to say, if I can I use "fresh" tomatoes it gives it a much better flavor and look.
