Instructions
In a food processor or blender, combine the black beans, lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, sea salt, cilantro, and jalapeño.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
If the dip is too thick, add water one tablespoon at a time and blend again until you reach the desired creamy consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning by adding more salt, lime juice, or spices, if needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with diced mango (optional) or additional chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips or raw veggies. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
