This recipe is so easy and the perfect dip to share at parties or for you to enjoy on your own as a snack. It pairs perfectly with vegetables or tortilla chips. Serve it alongside my Dill Pickle Hummus for the perfect party spread.
The best part? It takes about five minutes to make, thanks to a food processor or blender. You can adjust the spice and seasonings to your liking, making it perfect for everyone to enjoy.
Ingredients and Substitutions
- Black bean. I used a can of black beans for this recipe, but you can also use dry beans. You will have to soak and cook the beans before making the dip. Try white bean dip next!
- Jalapeño. The recipe calls for ½ of a jalapeño, but you can use more or less depending on how much you enjoy and tolerate spice. If you are a fan of jalapeños, check out my Jalapeño Cheddar Cornbread.
See the recipe card below for the remaining ingredients and quantities.
Instructions
- Prep your ingredients by rinsing and draining the black beans and slicing the jalapeño, lime and avocado in half.
- Add all of the ingredients to a food processor or high-powered blender and blend until smooth.
Sarah's Top Tips
- Store the dip in an airtight container in the fridge for about one week.
- I recommend using canned beans for convenience and ease.
- Add your favorite toppings such as cilantro, corn and jalapeño slices.
- Serve at room temperature.
Serving Ideas
- Tortilla chips or pita chips
- Crackers
- Vegetables- sliced bell peppers, sliced cucumbers, snap peas, carrots
- Use as a topping- you can use the dip as a topping for tacos, nachos and even as a spread on a sandwich
Serve this with my Turmeric Spiced Hummus, Roasted Habanero Salsa as appetizers for your next party or as a side with fish tacos.
