Avocado and Bean Dip

This avocado and bean dip combines the creaminess of avocado with the earthy taste of black beans, brightened with a touch of tomato, garlic, and lime. It’s a versatile dip that works as a snack, a spread, or even a filling for wraps.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium avocado (about 100 grams)
  • 80 grams cooked black beans (or any beans of choice)
  • 50 grams finely chopped tomato
  • 1 small clove finely minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped coriander leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper powder
  • Salt to taste

Procedure:

  • In a bowl, mash the avocado and black beans until they reach a chunky consistency.
  • Add the chopped tomato, minced garlic, lemon juice, and chopped coriander to the avocado-bean mixture. Mix well.
  • Sprinkle with cumin powder, black pepper, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with whole-grain crackers, veggie sticks, or as a spread on toast.
