Yummy Black Bean Chile Dip for Super Bowl Sunday

I’m already planning for Super Bowl Sunday…although I know it will be a cheat day, I want to make sure all the yummy food is as healthy and low fat as possible.


So over the next couple weeks as I choose recipes I’ll post them to share.



Here’s the first one: Black Bean Chile Dip



Black Bean Chile Dip


2 tablespoons chopped green chiles (from 4.5-oz can)

2 small onions, chopped (1/2 cup)

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

2 cans (15 oz each) black beans, drained, rinsed

1 cup Greek yogurt

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Dash of kosher salt



1. Place chilies, onions, garlic and beans in blender or food processor. Cover and blend on medium-high speed until almost smooth.

2. Spoon mixture into small bowl. Stir in yogurt, cumin and salt. If you are like me and like a little heat, add a few drops of Tabasco or Tapatio.Cover and refrigerate until chilled, or heat in 1 1/2-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently, until hot.

Garnish with chopped tomatoes and scallions if desired.
This dip is great with pita chips, kale chips or homemade wheat tortilla chips. Also good for dipping carrots, jicama and other veggies into.
