Black Eyed Pea Salad

We're talking about Super Summer Recipes all this week because after all, Summer officially makes it's appearance on Friday! So, we have to be prepared. And by prepared, I mean that we not only have a hefty supply of sunscreen, flip flops, beach towels and deodorant for the onslaught of Summer, we also have to have some quick, easy, yummy and cool recipes at our fingertips. Therefore, Black Eyed Pea Salad. I love this salad so much. I have been known to just eat this by itself for supper. 

Ingredients:
-3/4 cup oil
-1/4 cup sugar
-1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
-1 (15-ounce) can black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
-1 small can whole kernel corn, drained
-1 green bell pepper, diced
-1/2 cup diced green onions
-1 large tomato, diced
-1 red bell pepper, diced
-1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley leaves

Directions:
1.  In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, sugar and vinegar.
2.  In a large bowl mix together the remaining ingredients. Pour dressing on top of salad and mix well.
3.  Serve alone or with tortilla chips as a dip.
