Cowboy Caviar Bean Dip
This Cowboy Caviar Bean Dip is A perfect side dish for those summertime BBQs
I went to a BBQ recently and had Cowboy Caviar Bean Dip for the first time and I loved the flavors. I used chips to eat mine but I could see how with some minor changes this could be great on tacos!
So I started experimenting with the original recipe to include ingredients that are more my flavor profile. I recently had the chance to serve my new dish at a party I was hosting and it was a hit with everyone.
You can serve this Caviar Bean Dip with some tortilla chips or just in a bowl with a spoon or fork. Either way, it’s delicious! If you like this recipe, I would suggest you also give my Alfresco Bean Salad a try!
