Bean Dip


Serves: 16
Total Calories: 30

Ingredients

2 cups pinto beans, cooked, or 1 16 ounce can pinto beans
2 tablespoons green chilies, canned or fresh, seeded, finely chopped, or 1 fresh jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice, fresh
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin, ground
1 tablespoon cilantro, fresh, minced, or parsley

Directions:

Serve this dip with tortilla chips (see index). You can buy canned bean dip, but making your own is easy. It's also healthier because it will be much lower in sodium. Legumes raise the blood sugar slowly, so they are good for diabetics.

Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Serve at room temperature.
