I first tried Texas Caviar while at my husband's family reunion in Austin during Thanksgiving last year. This recipe duplicated what my sister-in-law made for us perfectly, except she had added red onion. I used a medium shallot and also added some tobasco sauce, cumin, and a little chili powder to spice it up some to meet my family's desire for a spicier flavor. Everyone loved this recipe and couldn't stop eating it. I have had several requests for the recipe from guests who shared this delicious snack with us. I have also served this as a side dish with grilled chicken and as a relish on cheese quesadillas. I will make this recipe over and over again. Thanks for posting this terrific recipe!

Usually when I see a recipe that includes the word 'caviar' I go right on by, but will admit that 'Texas' does grab at me, so . . . Glad I didn't pass on this one, 'cause THIS STUFF IS GREAT! Most definitely A WINNER, & I'll be including it with my other dips on my finger food counter from now on! Thanks for a great recipe!
