New Year’s Eve Appetizer

It’s time to add another important food to our New Year’s Day menu.  Many people believe that eating black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day is thought to bring prosperity in the new year.  Well, we can all certainly use more luck so I whipped together the perfect dip for New Year’s Day.

The great thing about this dip is you can serve it with chips or you can eat it as a salad.  And to be honest – I love it both ways. It’s a healthy salad and the perfect dip.  I’ll be serving this while we relax and watch football on New Year’s Day and I might even make more to have for lunch throughout the week.

What is Black-Eyed Pea Dip?

Black-Eyed Pea Dip is a delicious appetizer packed full of fresh veggies. All the ingredients are chopped and diced so the dip resembles pico or salsa which means it tastes great with tortilla chips.  I always include black eyed peas, black beans, corn, tomatoes, onions, red peppers, green onions, jalapenos, cilantro, and green chilies.

This is the perfect party recipe because you can make it ahead of time and your guests can eat it as a dip or a salad.  I actually think it tastes better when prepared ahead of time because it brings out all the zesty flavors.
