A perfect Black Bean dip recipe to replace the traditional “Nacho cream cheese” version.  Chips are my weakness and I love me some Nachos and dip but I have to avoid dairy at all costs.  This is a great alternative with some extra protein.  Try it hot as an alternative to ground beef when it’s Taco night.  Tidbit:  Beans make you fart but they don’t make it smell.  Just needed to address that!.  Smelly toots come from meat, dairy and eggs so eat up your beans.  Try this with a little Guacamole.  Lots more recipes being delivered in our free Fit4Females Fit Insider here.

Easy Black Bean Dip Recipe

Hummus is a favourite dip for many, but sometimes it is nice to switch it up.  This black bean dip is equally delicious and goes great with raw veggies, organic corn chips or crackers.   It takes less than 5 minutes to whip up which is a bonus.
