Texas Caviar

Submitted by Cadylynn

"The second best thing I have gotten from Texas! Actually, this salsa recipe comes from our bishop's wife. She makes it for every church activity and it is always devoured! Last night I told her I couldn't leave Rexburg without her salsa recipe so here it is. The recipe makes enough to feed our entire church, so you could cut the recipe in half or thirds."

I made this for a large crowd and kept the copy machine running for all the people who wanted the recipe. Not a speck was left in the bowl--I think people were actually scraping the bottom. The only thing I changed was to use the zest and juice of 1 lime. I also used 2 jalapenos and would loved to have used more but restrained myself because of the crowd. I also omitted the Greek seasoning and it was still wonderful. Thanks Cait.
