DC's Black Bean Hummus (in his own words)

Note from Stephanie: my husband is an amazing cook and is THE BEST at putting things you have in your fridge together to make something fantastic.  Like, you could have a squash, some cherry jell-o, some leftover pork chops, and some seltzer and somehow he makes gourmet mac-n-cheese out of all of it.  I do not lie.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can black beans drained and rinsed in the can
  • Like, a half a jalapeno...a medium one
  • 2 pinches of chunks of yellow onion

  • 2 gurgles of Olive Oil out of a bottle

  • dash of kosher salt
  • dash of pepper (fresh ground)
  • full ringing of one tired lime...scrape a little pulp out too

  • put it all in your bullet, and turn it on (Note from Stephanie: if you do not own a Magic Bullet, you are not living)

but you gotta shake it a little

Done and Done.

Delish.

Note from Stephanie: I love when he makes this.  It is SO good, so healthy, such a great vegetable dip (we put together small things of fresh veggies for our lunches during the week and add a scoop of this to it) or chip dip (we decided to keep our Snyder's Chips around...the ingredients fit our 5 ingredients or less requirements!  Try them out, for serious).  You can also spread hummus on a sandwich, or eat it off of your finger.  Not that we do that.

  1. I l-o-v-e black beans- I'm going to have to give this a try! I'm trying to eat more veggies, and I bet this is better to eat along with them than ranch!
