Instructions
Combine the base ingredients
Add the drained black beans, black-eyed peas, and thawed corn to a large mixing bowl. Stir them together gently to combine the base of this vegan cowboy caviar.
Add the fresh vegetables
Add the halved cherry tomatoes and finely diced red onion to the bowl. Toss everything together until the vegetables and beans are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Make and add the dressing
Whisk together the lime juice and olive oil in a small bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the bean and vegetable mixture and toss well to coat everything evenly.
Fold in avocado and serve
Gently fold in the diced avocado last to keep the pieces intact. Serve immediately with tortilla chips for scooping or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
