Black Bean Hummus

I’m not usually one to post dip recipes on the blog. However, after making this dip I knew it was worth sharing with you. This is a cupboard clean out recipe and one you all with absolutely love. (Just in case you missed it, we used to have a column called Cupboard Challenge, that we’ve renamed Cupboard Cleanout. These are recipes that are made only with the ingredients we have on hand. On a normal week, I’ll typically pick up a container of hummus from the store to save on time. But with a quick blend in the food processor, this black bean hummus can be made in 5 minutes flat.

Make it a meal. Use this dip to make a delicious vegan bowl!

Paired with quinoa and falafel, this vegan bowl is filling and absolutely delicious. (When we made this dish, one of us is a carnivore and the other is vegan.) Both of us loved this dish and were full by the end of the dinner.

Toppings to add to bowl: 

  • Arugula
  • Microgreens
  • Falafel
  • Salt and pepper
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Kalamata Olives
