VehiCross Caviar

[skullcap]

OK, this is as off-the-wall as I promise I will ever get.

For the recent Misty Mountain Meet in Rabun Gap, Georgia, I whipped-up a mess-o-mamma's "Georgia Caviar" (it was really my aunt's recipe, it just doesn't roll off the tongue as nicely).

Basically, it's a cold marinated corn and bean salsa that makes for easy and tasty party kibble.

Joe_Black had asked me for the recipe in a PM. Then, a few minutes ago, while proceeding to clean-up my PM account, it hit me: Yellow & White Corn, Black Beans, Red Tomatoes and Green Chilies; it has almost all of the colors of VehiCross available in the US (sorry, no Silver veggies come to mind).

Anyway, here is the recipe, and I'm renaming it to VehiCross Caviar . So fix up o'mess for your potlucks and parties, and remember some for your next VX meet.

One can each of drained:

Green Giant Mexi-Corn
Green Giant Sweet Yellow & White Corn
Green Giant White Shoepeg Corn
Rotel Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilis (Extra Hot)

One can each of rinsed and drained:
Black beans
Black-eyed peas

Mix the above and add 1/4 cup each:
Kraft Zesty Italian salad dressing
chopped fresh cilantro

Just allow to marinate overnight (12-hours) in the fridge, stir and enjoy as a dip (best with Fritos Scoops) or as a side-dish.
