Time 6h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (4 1/4 ounce) cans black olives, chopped
2 (4 ounce) cans green chilies, chopped
2 medium tomatoes, seeded & chopped
3 green onions, with tops, chopped
2 garlic cloves, mashed and chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced (optional)
3 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon pepper
1 dash seasoning salt

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients, except tomatoes (see notes) and chill overnight.
  • My notes:
  • Add the tomatoes right before serving to avoid making the dish too watery as they marinate overnight.
  • I prefer a medium (to fine) chop to the ingredients.
  • I would add jalapenos for heat.
  • Serve with Corn Chips for scooping.

TEXAS CAVIAR

My family has always gone for the rainbow version, sneaking in veggies of every color to round out the bowl. Jalapeno provides a kick, but you can remove the seeds or omit it altogether for less heat.

This is super easy and is great with so many things. You can eat it as a dip with tortilla chips, top a baked potato or salad greens with it or spoon over fish, chicken or steak. I usually bring it to parties as a dip and everyone asks for the recipe.
