It's really used as a bean dip with those cupped shaped tortilla chips. I have made this several times and lots of people find it kind of addicting. I took it to the Hallson Gathering we just had and several people loved it and wanted the recipe, so here it is:1-16 oz. can of black beans (drained and rinsed)
1-16 oz. can of pinto beans (drained and rinsed)
1-16 oz. can of black eyed peas (drained and rinsed)
1-4 oz. can of sliced water chestnuts (drained and rinsed)
1-15oz. can of yellow niblets corn (drained and rinsed)
1-15 oz. can of white shoepeg corn (drained and rinsed)
1 cup of Medium hot Pace Picante Salsa
1 cup of French or Catalina Dressing
2 bunches of green onions, chopped
5 medium hot peppers, chopped
Just combine all ingredients. This can be hot or cold.
I have always had it cold and you can alter the recipe any way you want. Any combination of three different beans is fine. More of this or less of that is okay too. And, if you use lo-fat or fat free dressing I am told that it can be used as a weight watchers recipe.
My DD and I don't care for spicy foods so I always use Mild salsa and only a couple hot peppers and then a few milder ones. Make it as hot as you like.
It is one of the easiest things to make for a large gathering!
I would have been requesting it if you hadn't. This is not something that usually appeals to me but it is delicious!!!
