If traditional caviar brings to mind stuffy cocktail parties, Texas caviar dip is the opposite. It’s welcome at the most raucous tailgates, down-home potlucks, all-day picnics and late-night snack spreads. Like all of our favorite party appetizers<\/a>, it’s a crowd-pleaser: versatile, unfussy and packed with flavor. Simply toss a big bowl of beans, vegetables and avocado in a lime-spiked dressing and tear open a big bag of tortilla chips. Here’s how to make it, plus infinite ways to change it up a Texas caviar recipe.<\/p>\n

What is Texas caviar?<\/h2>\n

Don’t expect this recipe to resemble real caviar (the salt-cured roe, or eggs, of wild sturgeon). Texas caviar is more like a cross between fresh salsa, bean salad and dip. Recipes tend to be as unique and varied as the cooks who make them, but they almost always contain beans, corn, tomato and onions, usually tossed together with a zippy vinaigrette. You might hear it called cowboy caviar, and it would taste delicious alongside any of our favorite cowboy recipes<\/a>.<\/p>\n
