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.
