Black Bean Dip

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling YIELD: 4-1/2 cups.
With black beans, avocados, corn, peppers and cilantro, this family bean dip has lots of flavor and texture. This dip came about when I was experimenting with a similar recipe one day.

  • 1 can (15-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 2. In a small bowl, whisk the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Drizzle over corn mixture; toss to coat. Gently fold in the avocado mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until chilled. Serve with tortilla chips.
