Cowboy Crack, er, I mean, Caviar

This is a simple recipe that is absoultely delish. It's pretty healthy, so eat up!
Start by making the bean mixture. One can each of Black Eyed Peas, Red Kidney Beans, and White Corn. One onion, green pepper, couple celery stalks, and a jalapeno, all diced finely.
Then make the dressing--
1 t. salt, ½ t. pepper
1 T. water, ½ C. olive oil, ¾ C. vinegar
1 C. sugar (I use ½ C)
Dash of garlic powder, Dash of cumin
Boil mixture and then let cool.
Pour the dressing over your bean/veggie mixture. Stir well and marinade in the fridge for about 24 hours, stirring a couple times during the marination.
Drain mixture before serving.
Seriously. It's like crack. I served it with those Scoops chips for maximum dip capacity. And the good thing about this recipe is that it should be made ahead of time, and it just gets better hour after hour in that dressing!
