"Here's a spicy Texas favorite. Black-eyed peas and black beans are marinated in a fiery, flavorful mixture. This is great with tortilla chips or bread -- and plenty of cold iced tea!"

This is really good, a refreshing difference from bottled salsa. I did add corn to ours. We also decided this tasted better the next day, the dressing was too strong tasting after only a couple of hours. Will be using the recipe regularly.

I made this for a barbeque tonight. I added a few extra jalapenos and no coriander because I didn't have any and put just a bit of dried cilantro. Very good recipe.
