MMM Monday! - Week 1


SOUTHERN CAVIAR 

















Don't worry - no fish eggs here.  

This delightfully easy, versatile recipe, has become a staple in my kitchen. Use as an appetizer served with chips or pita squares, use as a topping to jazz up fish, or use as a new topping twist on tacos.

You can make this recipe ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days.

I am linking up this week with one of my favorite bloggers, Jamie from Chosen Chaos, and her partner in crime Denae from New Mom Survival Adventures for the Easy Peasy link up. Check out some great recipes - all with ten ingredients or less!
