Cowboy Caviar

This was suggested to me by a friend. I found a couple different recipes that sounded good and built my own with what I had to work with. It will definitely be a staple the rest of summer!

Dice all the produce and mix together gently.

Add the liquids and season with salt and pepper to taste. Another stir and you are ready to go. Eat with chips or top your favorite tacos. If you let it set a few hours in the fridge that makes it even better imo. #Lemon8Diary #Recipe #cowboycaviar #sidesdish #appitizers #chipsanddip
