wasn't sure where to put Black Bean hummus
 
Okay so I made some tonight... It's AMAZING!!!

I used dried black beans.. but you can use canned.. (dried, in bulk is cheaper )
so:
1cup uncooked dried (becomes 3cups cooked or canned) black beans
2 TBSP per 1cup of beans
garlic cloves.. however many to taste
ground red pepper.. to taste
salt...to taste..
a bit of water (or lemon, lime juice).. to thin it out a bit.
onion powder...to taste
chili powder...to taste
1/2 plum tomato chunked up

throw the cooked beans and everything else, minus the water. Start mixing, add water as necessary to thin it out... I ended up using just under 1/2cup..
This is REALLY REALLY REALLY YUMMY!!! I'm enjoying it with a bunch of veggies!! Its sooo good!!! and store in the fridge
It's a great way to get in those veggies with a good lower calorie, high protein and fiber dip :D
Will post nutrition facts next!!

Okay, I'm going on little sleep here but I have a question? Where did all of the fat come from in the nutritional breakdown?

Good question? . . . afraid I don't have an answer based on the recipe given . . . most Hummus recipes have Tahini (sesame seed paste) in them and that would account for a fair bit of fat, and some recipes have a little olive oil as well -- maybe the original poster left out a couple of ingredients? The line that says "2 Tbsp per cup of beans" seems to be missing something?
