If you’ve been following this blog for any length of time you already know that I love to eat healthy food, and that I’m constantly trying to find recipes for healthy new foods and dishes my family will love too. When Mark emailed me this recipe for black bean hummus I knew I had to try it.
The girls eat regular hummus (receipe here) quite happily, which is a joy to behold because hummus is full of fibre and other great stuff. But back to the black beans. Here is how I served it up:
I thought it was ok. Maybe 5/10.
Next time I might add a bit more garlic and cilantro. I only used 1tb of olive oil because I didn’t want it emulsifying too much. It was very mild, but then again, I left the red pepper flakes out because I made it primarily for the girls.
One kid ate it quite happily, the other wasn’t too thrilled. Despite my 50% failure rate I do urge you to try it. I think it would make a great sandwich spread.
If you make this let me know how it works out for you!
