  • Hi everyone, its Natasha of Natashaskitchen.com. Today we're making a

  • mouth-watering cowboy caviar. It's a salsa that is fresh, healthy and loaded

  • and there's a surprising ingredient that makes every bite so juicy and delicious.

  • Get your chips ready because this always disappears fast. We start by slicing and

  • dicing 6 roma tomatoes. Transfer those to a large mixing bowl, you'll need space to

  • stir everything together because this makes a big party sized batch. Remove and

  • discard the stem and seeds from one red bell pepper. Slice your pepper into thin

  • strips then dice them up.

  • Finally dice one medium onion and it seems like a lot of onion but don't

  • worry, it disappears into the salsa and remember it's a big batch. Transfer those

  • bolts to your mixing bowl and now we conquer the jalapenos. You'll need two

  • jalapenos and any part of your hand that touches the jalapeno should wear a glove

  • because the spiciness from the jalapeno can stay on your fingers and if you

  • touch your eyes afterwards, you'll be in trouble. Cut off the stems and scrape out

  • the seeds, then thinly slice the jalapeños into strips and finally dice

  • them up. This is a lot of jalapeños but the overall salsa is not spicy at all

  • because of that special ingredient we'll add later. You'll need one large avocado,

  • the bigger, the better and I'll show you my easiest way to slice, peel and pit in

  • avocado. And for this salsa and most salsas it's best to use avocados that

  • are ripe but not overly soft because they keep their form in the salsa. Dice

  • up the avocado and add it to the bowl.

  • You'll need about a cup and a half of sweet corn and 15 ounces of well rinsed

  • and drained black beans chopped and add half a bunch of fresh cilantro. Add three

  • to four tablespoons of fresh lime juice and when I pick limes, I go for the ones

  • with the smooth skin. And if you roll the limes against the countertop before

  • squeezing, you will get more juice out of them. Onto that secret ingredient and

  • don't laugh, but it's 1/2 a cup of Italian dressing. You'll have to trust me

  • on this because it totally works. Also add 4 cloves of pressed garlic and you

  • can add salt to taste, That looks about right and all that's left to do is stir

  • it up and it's party time. Here we go. Oh yes, my mouth is totally watering for

  • this right now! YUM! And the secret really for that

  • amazing flavor is in the Italian dressing and the fresh lime juice, so

  • don't skip those. Wow! It makes this the juiciest salsa. I love

  • it! All right, and serve with some chips of course and I've got my favorites here

  • from Costco, because Costco is my jam...

  • Thank you!

  • These are cute baby scissors. Okay, much better. All right, here we go, right in the

  • bowl, that's how we roll.

  • Oh, weak in the knees right now. I love that this is staring back at me! This has

  • all the best salsa ingredients. We've got the fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, protein

  • in the beans - mm-hmm and you can use different kinds of beans if you like. We

  • just like black beans and then of course the avocado, which makes every bite so

  • creamy and delicious. I can't wait to finish this. One of the gals in my

  • nursing class from like eight years ago gave me this recipe and we've been

  • making it every summer like clockwork. It is one of our favorite salsas. It is a

  • crowd pleaser and it always disappears fast. If you enjoyed this video, please
