black bean dip

Black Bean Dip with Garlic, Olive Oil & Jalapeno's.

Soak black beans overnight or for 5-6 hours. Rinse. Fill pot with cold water two inches above bean line. Bring to a boil and reduce to a low simmer. Cover. Cook for 8-12 hours or until a soft mash. If beans are crumbling they are still dry and need to cook longer. Add more water and continue to cook until tender. Allow them to cool. Strain liquid. Blend them with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, few drops of honey, and cayenne pepper. Added a few jalapeno's to kick it up a bit more. Great post workout snack.
