Dips are great. But ever since my gluten-free, dairy-free journey began, I have longed for something to dip my tortilla chip in. Gone are the days of my beloved sour-cream based French onion dip, or the cheesy, seven-layer Mexican dip that frequents parties. I love a good guacamole which is naturally gluten and dairy-free (unless you're like my boyfriend and like to put sour cream in your guacamole), but I yearned for something different -- something hearty and garlicy. Thanks to my fantastic
Valentine's Day present from my parents, I was able to whip up a simple bean dip.
Magic Bullet Bean Dip
1 can black beans, drained
1/4 cup onion
2 cloves of garlic
1/4 cup roasted pepper
2 tbs balsamic vinegar
1 tsp cayenne pepper
Place all of the ingredients in your magic bullet, or mini-food processor and pulse until desired consistency. I had some majorly large garlic cloves on hand, so mine was particularly pungent (which I like). Eat at room temperature, chill, or warm in the oven and sprinkle with cheese if you're into that type of thing.
