What makes this Black Bean Dip a great snack idea?
Hi there, Jen from Yummy Healthy Easy here, ready to share a yummy and healthy snack recipe just for you! Anyone else find it hard to believe that it's 2015? I think the older you get, the faster the years pass.
Right? Also, the older you get, the harder it is to lose weight and/or keep it off. Right?! Can I get a double yes? Not to worry, I'm here to share a yummy and easy Black Bean Dip that is a healthy dip recipe.
My new year's resolution is to drink more water and to eat healthier. I'm always on the look out for new recipes to keep me feeling full but are healthy too. I'm what you would call a snacker. I LOVE dips. I have lots of dip recipes over at YHE. Like this easy Cucumber dip. I like to sort of nibble and peck at things in the pantry and fridge. Are you like that too?
If you are, I have the perfect recipe for you today... Black Bean Dip! It tastes just like a (refried) bean dip but is much healthier. It has a yummy bean flavor with just a kick of spice.
Are Black Beans Healthy?
Black beans are loaded with protein, making this the perfect snack if you're watching your calories. Just a little bit goes a long way. It pairs fabulously with pita chips or veggies. My family just couldn't get enough of it! It's a bit addicting, so watch out for that. 😉
Ingredients needed:
- Black beans
- Low-fat sour cream
- Salt
- Pepper
- Jalapeno
- Tomatoes
- Mexican cheese blend

You do realize that those are pintos correct? I cook with black, pinto, split pea kidney, etc extensively and those beans in the picture are not black. The recipe is still great but maybe get a different picture? That’s why I clicked, literally because it was off....Reply
