Texas Caviar

This recipe is similar to my every day Bean Salad recipe, but with only Black-eyed peas and red wine vinegar instead of unpasteurized apple cider vinegar.  And you eat it with chips.

3 cups black-eyed peas, cooked, drained
1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup red wine vinegar 
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup of finely diced tomatoes fresh or canned (if canned, drained and squeezed of juice)
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
2 jalapenos, seeded and finely chopped
Dash hot sauce, such as Tabasco 
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Tortilla chips, for serving

Combine all ingredients except Olive oil and Cilantro.  Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours to let the flavors mingle.  1 hour before serving set out and combing oil and Cilantro.  Serve with chips.
