Cowboy Caviar bean dip

This recipe comes to me from my friend Tammy.  You can see her original post here. 

I have had this bean dip/cowboy caviar before at our old church.  I thought it was one of the best tasting things I have ever had!  I tried to copy it back then but didn’t quite have all the ingredients just right.  Then my friend Tammy gave me a container of this the other day and I tasted it and was taken back to years ago when I first had it and it was good!

It is so yummy.  This would make a great dish to take to a potluck meal.  I mean I don’t even need a potluck meal to make this, I would have it in my refrigerator to eat some everyday.  It makes a pretty dish and with some colored tortilla chips it is a nice presentation.
