Grain Crazy: Cowboy Caviar with Libby's Vegetable Pouches

We were given the opportunity through Recipe Redux to try Libby's new Vegetable Pouches. These little pouches were a great substitute for the normal canned vegetables because you can heat the vegetables right in the package. And who doesn't like to do less dishes? :) And considering I just cut my hand on a traditional can last week, it's nice to have a product that won't hurt my clumsy hands.

This Cowboy Caviar is one of our favorite appetizers. We took it to a party and it was a hit. It is a simple, fresh, and healthy salsa that is great on tortilla chips or any of your other favorite dipping devices. This recipe spotlights Libby's farm fresh sweet corn as the primary ingredient.

Ingredients
1 13 oz pouch of Libby's whole kernel sweet corn
2 avocados chopped up
3-4 Roma tomatoes chopped up
1/4 C chopped up purple onion
1 15 oz can of beans drained and rinsed (white, black, garbanzo, or black eyed peas)
1/4 c chopped up cilantro
1/4 C chia (optional)
1/4 C chopped up cilantro
1/4 tsp chili powder
salt and pepper to taste
juice from 2 limes

Directions
1. Toss together corn, avocados, tomatoes, onion, beans, and cilantro.
2. Then toss in chia, cilantro, chili powder, salt, pepper, and juice.
3. Serve at once or put in air tight container in the fridge.
