This distinctive salsa recipe, shared by a friend named Barb, offers a fresh twist on a classic. It combines chopped tomatoes, green pepper, onion, jalapeno, and plenty of fresh cilantro with canned black-eyed peas and hominy. The mixture is dressed in a bottle of Italian dressing, which provides a tangy flavour. After combining, it requires chilling for at least four hours to allow the flavours to meld beautifully, making it an ideal make-ahead appetiser or side dish.
