Ingredients
- 2 cups Black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 0.5 cups Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 units Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder

Instructions
Place the black beans, sour cream, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and diced jalapeño (if using) into a food processor or blender.
Pulse the mixture until it begins to combine, then blend on high until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to thin it out to your desired consistency.
Taste the dip and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle the chopped cilantro on top for garnish.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or pita bread, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
