Cowboy Caviar

Recipe Ingredients

1		Black beans - drained and rinsed
1		Chopped ripe olives - drained
1		Onion - chopped (small)
1		Garlic - chopped
2 tablespoons	30ml	Vegetable oil
2 tablespoons	30ml	Lime juice
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Salt
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Crushed red pepper
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon	0.6ml	Black pepper
1		Cream cheese - softened
2		Hard cooked eggs - peeled and chopped
1		Green onion - with top, sliced
		Tortilla chips

Recipe Instructions

Gently mix all ingredients except cream cheese, eggs, green onion and tortilla chips. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Spread cream cheese on large platter. Spoon bean mixture evenly over cream cheese, leaving a small outside border of cheese. Arrange eggs* on bean mixture in ring around edge of plate; sprinkle with gr. onion. Serve with tortilla chips. About 12 servings.

* I usually use Mexican ( taco) style shredded cheese instead of egg. That just doesn't sound too good to me. To add more color add chopped red onion to bean mixture.
