Notes

  • This Black Eyed Pea Salad recipe is extremely versatile. Not a fan of cilantro? Skip it. Love corn? Add in extra! You can play with the ingredients as much as you like, even swapping out certain types of beans for others or making your own Italian dressing to use.
  • Letting the salad sit overnight gives it a stronger flavor. Develop the flavors even more by letting the salad rest in the refrigerator overnight after mixing.
  • Want a little extra heat? Add diced jalapeños to the mix! My family loves jalapeños in this dish.
