Ingredients




1 cup Dried white beans, soaked & cooked
3 Cloves garlic, crushed
Salt & pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Olive oil
6 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons Water
2 Hot chiles, minced
2 Scallions, minced
cup Finely chopped cilantro

Preparation

1 Use any kind of bean for this recipe (black beans don't do as well, however): white, navy, pea, pinto, garbanzo, kidney. If you don't want to deal with dry beans, use 2 cups of drained canned beans. 2 Puree all ingredients except scallions and cilantro in a food processor or a blender, using more or less water to achieve your desired texture. Work the green herbs in by hand; if you use the machine, the dip will be green. Transfer to a bowl and garnish with additional cilantro sprigs. 3 Serve with tortilla chips. Make your own low-fat chips by brushing whole corn tortillas lightly with oil, cutting tortillas into wedges, then baking in a 350 degree oven till brown and crisp, 10 to 15 minutes, turning once. 4 Flavor, Low Fat Cooking".
