During the holiday season, we are often greeted with party food which are high in salt, fat and sugar. This Classic Texas Caviar is a wonderful appetizer for potluck as it feeds a crowd. It is very filling and flavourful, and full of healthy protein and fiber.
The Classic Texas Caviar recipe is adapted from Pam Anderson and it serves a large party. Ken and Frank made this healthy appetizer. Ken and Frank are the oldest seniors in the South Arm Cooking Club for seniors. Can you guess their age?

Whoa! This is really good! Thanks for sharing! I’m going to make it again right away, hehe!
Thanks for your recipe, been looking for a healthy dip for New Years. What’s nice is anyone can add their own twist to this. I
am going to add cubed avocado and diced olives to give it a “California” twist… Texi-fornia Caviar?? You guys are great!
When two people can work together in a kitchen they’re GREAT in my book!
Not to mention with a can opener and a knife!
I guess the younger half of 60ish..
