Keoni and I have been so busy and haven’t gone out much lately. I did meet some friends at Eclipse di Luna for a birthday celebration. One of my favorite things there is the black bean hummus and I’ve tried to copy it but mine never tasted as good. When I got home I had my new Cooking Light magazine and there was this delicious recipe for black bean hummus! I added a few pine nuts because that’s what they do at Eclipse.
Ingredients
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon tahini (roasted sesame seed paste)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 small jalapeño pepper, chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
- Dash of crushed red pepper
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Dash of ground red pepper
- 1 (6-ounce) bag pita chips (such as Stacy’s Simply Naked)
Preparation
1. Place garlic in a food processor; process until finely chopped. Add lemon juice, tahini, cumin, salt, black beans, jalapeño pepper, and crushed red pepper; process until smooth. Spoon bean mixture into a medium bowl, and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with ground red pepper. Serve with pita chips
