This was very good. Didn't get black eye'd peas - the grocery was out so substituted pinto beans - going with the southwestern theme. I made this in advance and the flavors melded really well overnight. Didn't even add the avocado yet - and not sure I will. It is perfectly good without the avocado! Thanks for posting!
