Recipe - Cowboy Cavier

1 cn (13 oz) black beans drained
and rinsed
1 cn (4 One half oz) chopped ripe
olives; drained
1 small Onion; chopped
1 Clove garlic chopped
2 tablespoon Veg. oil
2 tablespoon Lime juice
One fourth teaspoon Salt
One fourth teaspoon Crushed red pepper
One fourth teaspoon Gr. cumin
1/8 teaspoon Blk pepper
1 pack (8 oz) cream cheese;
softened
2 Hard cooked eggs; peeled &
chopped
1 Green onion; with top,
cut or sliced up
Tortilla chips

This is a favorite at our house. From Betty Crocker Southwest Cooking and
in Ohio paper.

Gently mix all ingredients except cream cheese, eggs, gr. onion and
tortilla chips. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Spread cr. cheese on large platter. Spoon bean mixture evenly over cr.
cheese, leaving a small outside border of cheese. Arrange eggs* on bean
mixture in ring around edge of plate; sprinkle with gr. onion. Serve with
tortilla chips. About 12 servings.

* I usually use mexican ( taco) style shreaded cheese insteah of egg. That
just doesn't sound too good to me. To add more color add chopped red onion
to bean mixture.
