Ingredients:
1 can black bean, rinsed
1/2 cup of Cilantro chopped (leave a 1 Tbsp for garnish leaves)
1/2 Tsp of Chili powder
1/4 tsp of cumin
Juice from 1 lime or 4 Tbsp of lime juice
Sauté 1/4 cup of chopped and diced red onion and 3 garlic cloves chopped

Directions:
  1. Chop your cilantro and set aside.
  2. Sauté onion and garlic with 2 Tbsp of olive oil in a pan on medium heat.
  3. Rinse black beans and place 1/2 of it in the blender.
  4. Add 5 Tbsp of water. (Add more if needed once you have added the rest of the black beans).
  5. Add the lime juice.
  6. Add sauté onions and garlic along with spices. Blend and you may need a spatula to help move things along to blend and any mixture that gets stuck on the side of the blender.
  7. Add the rest of the black beans and continue to blend. Blend until your preference (smooth or a little chunky with the beans).
  8. Add your chopped cilantro and mix with spoon or spatula.
  9. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with a few cilantro leaves on top.

Enjoy it as a spread on your soft tortilla, or with crusted buns or as a dip.
