Black Bean Hummus

Although black beans are not usually included in Middle Eastern cooking, they make such a nice alternative to chickpeas in hummus. Black beans are also very healthy and high in anti-oxidants.

INGREDIENTS:
* 1 can black beans, drained (15 oz)
* 1/4 cup tahini
* 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/4 tablespoon lime juice

* 1/2 teaspoon cumin

PREPARATION:
In a food processor, process all ingredients until smooth and creamy. If it is too thick, add half a teaspoon olive oil and a half teaspoon lime water. Serve immediately or store in refrigerator in airtight container.

Serve with hot pita bread, pita chips, veggies, or tortilla chips.
