About the Recipe

I really like this recipe as it is quick, easy, and high reward for the preparation it takes. You can make it in bulk which saves time during a busy week, and it pairs nicely with chopped veggies for a mid-day snack. It is a good source of protein, fiber and healthy fats with the avocado oil. Black beans are also a good source of dietary iron, calcium and potassium. Want help your body absorb the iron in this dip? Add a squeeze of lime juice to the top as this provides vitamin C that helps with iron absorption - Enjoy!
