Ingredients

  • 1, oz. can black beans
  • 1, oz. can black eyed peas
  • 1, .5 oz. can Kidney Beans
  • 1, .25 oz. can yellow corn
  • 1, .25 oz. can white corn
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1 small white onion, diced (red onion works too!)
  • 1-2 jalapeños, seeded and diced
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp. red pepper chili flakes (optional for more heat)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 15 oz. Italian dressing of your choice (1 bottle)*
  • 1 avocado, cut into cubes (add last, right before serving)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Drain and rinse canned beans and corn.
  2. Combine all ingredients in large serving bowl. Toss to combine in the salad dressing.
  3. You can serve right away as a salad or with chips/veggies. Before serving, dice the avocado and add on top.
  4. Note: You can refrigerate for several hours before serving. This allows the flavors to marinate!

Notes

  • Feel free to change up the beans used and add extra veggies like cucumber or bell peppers if you have them on hand. This dip is always a hit at parties!
  • I usually buy the Wish Bone Italian Dressing. If you feel like using the entire bottle is too much dressing for your preference, start with 1 cup. Taste, and add more as desired. One bottle (15 fluid oz.) is about 1 3/4 cups of dressing.
