Not all bean dip comes out of that creepy little can. You can make hearty, delicious, all-natural bean dip in seconds.
Ingredients
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained
1/4 of a medium-sized onion (about 1/4 cup) 1-2 cloves garlic 1/4 cup roasted red peppers 1/4 cup (fat-free) chicken or vegetable broth 2 Tbs. balsamic vinegar dollop of sour cream (optional) cayenne pepper to taste (optional)
First ...Drain most of the liquid out of the canned beans.
Serving Suggestion
Then...Load all the ingredients, in the order they are listed, into the Tall Cup. And ... Twist on the Cross Blade and quickly Pulse until you reach the desired consistency.
This dip is great both warm and cold. If you go for the warm version, try adding 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese to the ingredients before you blend it. (If you don't have room, partially mix the ingredients, then add the cheese.) Take the blade off, place the Shaker/Steamer Top on the cup and microwave for about 2-3 minutes (until warm throughout). Give the dip another quick Pulse or two, then serve immediately. The warm version goes perfectly with nachos or sliced crusty Italian bread.
Tip!
Use your favorite type of bean. Black beans can be substituted with pinto beans, white beans, whatever you're into.
Black bean sauce. Add a cup of broth to make a perfect sauce for pouring over chicken or fish. Black bean soup. Add 2 cups of broth to make a zesty, flavorful soup -- a great way to use any leftover dip. Throw in a few shrimp for a real treat. |
