Texas Caviar

This is my recipe for Texas Caviar. I got it from my cousin, Camille, and it is YUMMY!

1 bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped (I used the dried parsley#)
1 can jalapenos, diced
1 can black-eyed peas, drained
1 medium white onion, chopped
2 bunches green onions, chopped
1 can hominy, gold or white, drained
1 120z Zesty Italian Dressing (can use generic brand but not fat free)
3 -4 chopped tomatoes, depending on what you like (alright, I've cheated here too and put in two cans of petite diced tomatoes)

Marinate all of the above ingredients except for the tomatoes for at least one hour. Add tomatoes before serving.

**I have also added chopped cucumbers and diced avocado**

#According to the Food Network, if you use dried herbs in place of fresh it is a 1 to 3 ration - so 1/3 of 1/2 is ???, I just cheated and looked on my handy dandy Equivalent Measurements chart I purchased at the dollar store - 1/3 of 1/2 EQUALS 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp or 1/8 cup.
