SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE starts tomorrow night (Thursday, May 21, 8/7c on Fox). I consider this the finest television entertainment there has ever been, and so do my good friends (several large men included.)
We're having a party tomorrow to kick off season. My two favorite things are coming together: food and dancing. I'm providing my favorite Texas Caviar recipe. For those of you unfamiliar with Texas Caviar, it is a ridiculously chunky salsa with black eyed peas, golden hominy, bell peppers, and lots of other goodness.
As a funny side note: I once helped my brother make this salsa for a party. He is fairly novice in the kitchen, so i laughed when he asked me "Should we put butter in this?" But then he said, "Are we going to put some sort of meat in there?" and I finally lost it, when we mixed all the ingredients together, and he said, "So now we cook it?"
Texas Caviar
4 roma tomatoes diced
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper
1 can black eyed peas, drained
1 can golden hominy, drained
1 can mild salsa (Pace Picante has never let me down)
Mix ingredients together. Chill over night (this lets the flavors mix well), and serve with tortilla chips.
it was SOO yummy!
