Tuna steaks, jalapeno cheese grits, and cowboy caviar.....
Very nice! Any chance on gettin your recipe for that "cowboy caviar"?
"Never Trust a Skinny Chef."
nice as usual, my mom makes a bean dip that has a awfully close resembalance to your "cowboy caviar"
Damn good looking meal!!! We eat Cowboy Caviar often in the summer.
Here's a basic recipe. Add or change ingredients to your taste.....the more fresh the better (obviously) I always use Red Onion in mine and add some fresh lime juice. I use way less salad dressing........
NGREDIENTS
* 1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans, drained
* 1 (15.5 ounce) can black-eyed peas, drained
* 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
* 2 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
* 1/2 medium onion, chopped
* 1/4 green bell pepper, finely chopped
* 1/2 cup chopped pickled jalapeno peppers
* 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
* 1 cup Italian salad dressing
* 3/4 cup chopped cilantro
DIRECTIONS
1. Mix beans, peas, tomatoes, corn, onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno peppers in a large bowl. Season with garlic salt. Add dressing and cilantro; toss to coat. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until ready to serve.
F**K Cancer
Just Damn.
No problem, FG. It's REAL tough.
1 16oz. can of black beans
1 16oz. can of blackeyed peas
1 160z. can of diced tomatoes
1/2 onion cut to whatever size you like
2c. frozen whole kernel corn
1/2c. chopped jalapenos
2/3c. Italian dressing
3/4c. Cilantro
Drain the beans and tomatoes. Mix it all up. Let it sit 20-30 min. if you can.
The original recipe calls for 1c. of Italian dressing. I like to go lighter on it. It also calls for bell pepper that I leave out.
No big deal.

We serve it here at the bar and call it redneck caviar. Equal parts black beans blackeyed peas corn and rotel. Add as much red onion and cilantro as you'd like salt and pepper to taste and a squeeze of lemon juice. I'm sure there are a hundred variations but I wanted mine to work with the dumbest guy or the smartest guy making it.
Your riding a gravy train with biscuit wheels.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mm that loox eggcellent!
We gave you Corn,you gave us clap,bad trade.
If I had it to do over again, I'd get a regular plate and put the tuna on the grits w/a dollop of the jalapeno puree on top.
'Twas good regardless.
Any of you guys ever try quinoa? It's pronounced like "keen' wa" and is a small, white legume about the size of #9 shot. You boil it like rice, although I like to substitute canned chicken broth instead of water. It's supposed to be one of the most complete sources of protein available. My wife makes a Southwestern salad sort of like the above cowboy caviar that is excellent. I've used quinoa as a rice substitute in a chicken bog and it was damn good too.
Never had it, Bug. But I found this link on it....

Sounds like you'd treat it like a risotto.
Thanks for the recipes guys. I've seen a ton of variations on the same thing, I just like to see how everyone makes thiers, and take the best parts of 3 or 4 and make one out of it.
Simple, if you don't like bell peppers, I understand, but try some roasted red bell instead of raw green peppers. They have a less aggresive, sweeter flavor, mixed with some char. You can do them yourself on the grill(cover in cooking spray and flame roast until black, place in a bowl and cover with plastic film and cool, peel off the outer charred layer, seed and devien) or the ones that you can buy in the can are fine. Look for the ones with the least amount of olive oil in the can.

"Never Trust a Skinny Chef."
I'm just not big on bell peppers, roasted or otherwise. And anybody can tell by lookin at me that I ain't picky about much in the way of food.
I'm not gonna pick 'em out if somebody else makes it, but when I'm makin it I can add/delete at will.
It should be a Class A Felony to possess, sell, trade, or barter Cilantro anywhere on the planet. We should be spending billions spraying cilantro plants with Paraquat anywhere they grow instead of wasting billions in the failed war on drugs. What I am trying to say is, cilantro sucks.
LMAO. A little cilantro goes a loooong way, but I can't imagine most salsas without it.
Me gusta cilantro....
speaking of cilantro- I ate at Abuelos last night and 30 minutes ago I shit a mexican sombrero out my ass with some cilantro on it
