We're getting ready to go camping this weekend and I'm trying to keep some semi-clean food around, among the hot dogs and bread and chips and sugary margaritas... I've chopped up an entire watermelon (which, I swear, is one of my least favorite kitchen activities), I've boiled some eggs, I've bagged up some salad fixin's. AND I made some stellar spicy black bean hummus with cilantro.
Yeah, this will be the third time I've posted a hummus recipe. I don't care. It's a healthy dip. Those two words don't often go together, so when they do, I mean... Seriously. You have yourself a win/win.
Ingredients
- 1 can black beans, drained and well-rinsed
- 1 1/2 T tahini
- 1/2 bunch cilantro, rinsed and chopped
- 2 T olive oil
- 1/2 t cayenne pepper
- 1 lemon, juiced
- salt to taste
- Combine black beans, lemon juice, and olive oil in food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Add tahini, cilantro, cayenne pepper, and salt and blend until all ingredients are mixed.
- Serve with sliced veggies or some kind of delicious, unhealthy carby situation such as pita chips or crackers. Or any ol' chip would do.
I choose chips. |
Have a happy Independence Day, my friends!
