Does anyone have the recipe for what they call 'Texas Caviar?' It's a bean and spice mix that you eat with tortilla chips.

Beans, onion, celery...that's all I remember!

Thanks!

If no one's posted the Texas Caviar recipe on here in a few minutes or if you haven't found it elsewhere, I'll post the one from the big Texas Home Cooking book (best book, IMHO). It works well - and shocks Californians, this transplanted Texan can tell you.

"'Texas Caviar?'"

That is some delicious stuff. I think it is lightly tossed in olive oil and is served chilled. It is wonderful, and I, too, would like the recipe. So, I'll google and post it.
