This Texas caviar is made from black-eyed peas rather than fish eggs. Texans say you need to make it one to three days ahead so the flavors will mellow.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups chopped seeded tomato

1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions

2 tablespoons canned chopped green chiles

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

1 tablespoon minced seeded jalapeño pepper

1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1 garlic clove, minced

1 (15.8-ounce) can black-eyed peas, drained

jalapeño slices (optional)

cilantro sprigs (optional)

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Cover and chill. Garnish with jalapeño slices and cilantro sprigs, if desired. Serve with baked tortilla chips.
