    Black (Bean) & Gold Dip

    Published: Jan 30, 2019 by Laura Yautz

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    I'm really excited to share this Black (Bean) & Gold dip with you for your upcoming party! The black bean dip is a bit spicy, and the sweet mango puree is its perfect compliment. Steeler fan or not, everyone will love it, and it will be gone in no time! And here's the bonus: this is made with all healthy foods, and no added sugar or salt! Nomnomnom!

    Have I mentioned how easy it is?? It's just a matter of tossing all the ingredients for the black bean dip in your food processor and whizzing it up. Dump. Rinse. Repeat with mango. Done. If you want to get fancy, I used a decorating bag (like you use for frosting a cake) to make the design. But this is just as yummy if you toss it all in a bowl!

    So make up a batch of Black (Bean) & Gold Dip, and settle in to watch you-know-who lose! 😉

    Ingredients

    • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
    • ¼ cup salsa
    • Juice from 1 lime
    • 1-2 teaspoon hot sauce, to taste
    • 1 teaspoon cumin
    • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
    • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
    • 1 mango, peeled and cubed (about 2 cups)

    Instructions

    • Add all ingredients except mango to a food processor, and process until smooth.
    • Scoop into a bowl and rinse out food processor.
    • Add the mango to the food processor, and process until smooth.
    • Combine the black bean dip with the pureed mango in any way you like!

    Notes

    I created the design in the picture by using piping bags (for cake decorating) and smoothing it out with a spatula. If you don’t have piping bags, you can use a ziplock bag and cut one of the corners off to make a makeshift piping bag. Or just load it all in a bowl and dip away!
