Bring it to your next party or cookout in place of the rich, creamy dips and enjoy the healthy, happy smiles you’ll earn from your friends and family.
Ingredients
- 2 heads of garlic
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 2 (15 oz.) cans no salt added black beans
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. tahini (sesame seed paste)
- ½ tsp. cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- ½ tsp. kosher salt
- 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
- 1½ tsp. dried chives
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Tear two squares of aluminum foil and lay flat on a work surface. Cut the top ¼ off each head of garlic. Place one head of garlic in the center of each foil square. Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Wrap foil around garlic and roast in the oven for 1 hour. Remove and let cool at least 15 minutes, or until cool enough to handle.
- Squeeze the cloves out of the heads of garlic into the bowl of a food processor. Add the black beans. Pulse until ingredients are pureed. With the processor still running, pour in the olive oil until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Add tahini and remaining 4 ingredients. Process again until the mixture is smooth, adding water if it becomes too thick. Garnish with chives and serve with veggies.
