Black Bean Hummus

Ok, so I love hummus! And not just the plain kind. We used to go to a restaurant that would serve a hummus tri of plain, red pepper, and black bean. The black bean quickly became one of my favorites! Here is how I make this yummy treat. It's much better than store bought. 

TOOLS

Food processor

Small pot

Small spatula

Knife

Cutting board 

Airtight container

Measuring spoons

INGREDIENTS

1 15 oz can black beans, rinsed

2 tbsp lemon juice (I used the juice of one medium lemon)

1 clove garlic

1 1/2 tbsp tahini

3/4 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

1/4 tsp paprika

1 tbsp olive oil

MIX IT UP!

1. Rinse and heat your black beans until warm. 

2. Peel and chop the garlic clove. I use 1 clove. You can certainly add more to your taste. 

3. Remove beans from pot and add to food processor.

4. Add garlic and all other ingredients to food processor. 

5. Pulse until mixed into a paste. 

6. Please in air tight container and refrigerate. Enjoy!
