made this yesterday, and served it last night. at first everyone was like "what's that?"..and then they gobbled it up. really good flavors. very simple ingredients, and easy to prepare. a change from the typical dip for a chip. very good, i will definately make this one again.

Delicious! I used a mixture of black-eyed peas, chick peas, whole kernel corn, and black beans. It was a perfect dip with tortilla chips.

I made this in the morning for an evening dinner party, and instead of black-eyed peas (didn't have any on hand) I used black beans and an extra can of garbanzos. Very good mesh of flavors in this. It was served as a side to tortilla wrapped chorizos, and seconds were had by everyone. I'll bet its even better today!

Delicious! I made it as an appetizer for Thanksgiving and it got rave reviews. The only thing I changed was that I didn't have oregano so I used different fresh herbs from my garden - Mexican mint marigold and a finely chopped fresh bay leaf. I used an easy homemade red wine vinaigrette. Before serving I did drain it a bit. Will definitely make it again.

This was a delicious appetizer that everyone thought was terrific. I passed the recipe on to several of my guests. I used Wishbone Italian Robusto salad dressing and a combinated of diced orange and yellow peppers.
Because the recipe makes such a large batch, I had leftovers. I made a pasta salad with the leftovers that was terrific. I added some of the "caviar" to cooked, cooled pasta along with marinated diced artichoke hearts, black olives, and parmesan cheese. It was delicious!

Very tasty. I didn't use worcestershire because my friend is allergic to wheat, I used a can of diced tomatoes instead of a fresh one (its December), and mixed up about 1 cup oil & vinegar. Also I used dried black eyed peas instead of canned. Everyone enjoyed it! Thanks!

Made this for a 4th of July picnic/potluck. Served it with "scoops", but most people just ate it as a salad. I stuck pretty close to the recipe, except I used a diced orange bell pepper instead of the pimento and used far less dressing (about 1/2 a bottle of Annie's roasted red pepper vinaigrette). It really does improve with time, so don't be afraid to make it one or even two days in advance. Also, I liked the fact that it did not contain cilantro (I like cilantro, but must it be in everything?). The combination of fresh oregano and parsley suited this recipe perfectly. This will become a standby. PS. For those folks who could not find black eyed peas in the market... be sure to look in the canned vegie section, not the canned bean section.

Pretty darned good!!!! used jalapeno and bacon flavored balck eyed peas, omited pimiento, added extra tomato, and for vinaigrette used Newman's Own Lime Vinaigrette dressing. This made a little much for just my man and I, so a few days later we put a different twist on it to eat it all up. Added a cup or so of shredded fiesta cheese and a cup or so of sour cream with some cumin and heated it in the microwave. Very easy to make, I just have to keep remembering I cannot rub my face after cutting jalapenos.

This turned out really great! I spooned it in a dish over spread cream cheese and it was delightful! It took a little time to make it, but the flavor was worth the effort.

For our family at least another jalapeno is needed.....other than that this is fantastic. It does get better with age. Almost a week after I made it I served it on top of chicken breasts and it was superb.

I doubled the recipe and took it to a Father's Day luncheon. It makes a HUGE bowl and it was delicious. Thanks for sharing.

This is sooo tasty! Strong flavors blending beautifully together. I didn't have any scallions, so used white onion and don't know how much is in a jar of pimiento in US., so used both onions and pimiento about the same amount as green pepper. Very good with corn chips.

Being from the south I feel the need to eat Black-eyed peas on New Year's Day the only problem is I don't like them. So I found this recipe and it helped me out. I made the dip Dec 30 and had some for New Year's Eve as well as filling my requirements to eat black eyed peas for new years day. Be forwarned this recipe does make alot. I used 1 lb of dryed beans that I cooked up a day or two in advanced, and made a basic vinegarette with olive oil mustard and balsamic vinegar. This stuff helped me start of my year with Good Luck and Good Taste. Thanks for the great recipe this will be part of my New Year celebrations from now on

This is really good and I ate wayyyyyy too much of it. Delicious with tortilla chips! So quick that it'd be great for a last minute dip for guests.

I have made this many times from a recipe that I have at home.I lost the recipe and am fortunate to have found a replica. The only difference is that I add 1 can of drained and rinsed hominy and bottled italian dressing.I love to make it the day before and let the flavors marry overnite before I serve it.Thanks for the recipe MEAN,it is one of my favorites and being that I am from Louisiana, we call it cajun caviar.

Oh, wow! I've prepared several versions of this and eaten quite a few others. This recipe is the best, hands down! Since I don't buy tomatoes out of season, I used canned. (The 'petite diced' were perfect -- much better than the standard diced would have been.) Otherwise, I followed the recipe exactly. After 24 hours, it was good; after 36, it was much, much better; at the 48-hour mark, we switched from chips to spoons. :)
