Great dip to serve with toasted pita wedges, veggies, or chunks of grainy bread. I have friends who prefer this to real hummus.
Ingredients:
1 clove garlic
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drain and reserve liquid
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons tahini
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
10 black olives, chopped
Directions:
1. Mince garlic in the bowl of a food processor.
2. Add black beans, 2 tablespoons reserved liquid, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, tahini, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
3. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
4. Add additional seasoning and liquid to taste.
5. Garnish with paprika and chopped black olives.
6. Serve with toasted pita wedges, veggies (I like baby carrots, especially.), and/or chunks of grainy bread.
