This is definitely a crowd pleaser - it makes enough to serve 12, so if you are expecting a large crowd, double the batch to serve a couple dozen people. I have made this recipe so many times and it gets devoured every time! Have the recipe on hand too - people will ask you for it!

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup olive oil
1 Tbsp sugar
1/3 cup white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 pound diced tomatoes (remove seeds)
1 (15 oz) can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (11 oz) can corn, drained
1 red onion, diced
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper 
1 cup chopped cilantro
1 Avocado cut in pieces (optional)
1/4 cup pickled jalapeños, chopped
Juice of 1 lime (optional)


Mix all of the oil and spices together. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir. Cover, refrigerate, and let marinade for at least 1 hour.

This recipe was adapted from Culinary Hill - the original version is on the sweeter side. This version has less sugar and the addition of lime, avocados and jalapeños.

This recipe is simple, delicious and your guests will absolutely love it! There are only 5 ingredients, so you can whip it up in a flash! I always have these ingredients on hand so I can throw it together if unexpected guests stop by. Especially around the Holidays!

All you need to makes this big bowl of perfection, is:

5 chopped green onions
8-10 ounces of grated cheddar cheese (extra-sharp is the best!)
1 1/2 cups of mayonnaise
1/2 cup real bacon bits (cooked, crumbled bacon is always best, but you can buy the real bacon bits in a jar if you are short on time)
1/2 cup slivered almonds

Mix all together and chill. Serve with crackers. Ritz crackers are my favorite with this dip!

2 Tbsp powdered taco seasoning
