Texas Caviar

To celebrate the end of school, several teachers gathered at a friends house for happy hour. Of course we had to include food to celebreate the end of the year. I thought I would share what I brought....Texas Caviar. I know it doesn't sound so appetizing, but trust me it is wonderful. This is the recipe I found on Allrecipes.com
