Cowboy caviar pasta salad because anything is a pasta salad if you’re pure of heart!
**Unfortunately I measured with my heart and don’t have exact measurements, but here’s roughly what I used:** \-1/2 box of tricolor rotini (cooked) \-1 can of corn \-1 can of black eyed peas \-1 can of diced roasted tomatoes (specifically garlic ones) \-2 diced jalapeños (seeded) \-1/2 diced orange bell pepper \-1/3 diced red onion \-1/3 cup chopped cilantro \-lime juice, taco seasoning, salt & pepper, and garlic powder to taste
Variation ideas \-add cubed avocado \-add black beans for extra protein (or do 50/50 with black eyed peas for more variety) \-Serrano peppers instead of jalapeno if you prefer a bit spicier (this is honestly rather mild still even with 2 jalapeno!) \-gluten free pasta for GF folks
**This turned out absolutely delicious so wanted to pass on in the hopes others could enjoy as well!**
