Total time needed: approx 15 minutes
Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:

1 Can (26-30oz) Black Beans
3 Cloves Garlic or 1T of minced garlic in jar
1/3 (heaping) cup of Almond Butter
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (1-2 lemons squeezed)
1 tsp Uncle Brutha's green sauce (Sriricha works too)


1. Drain and rinse beans



2. Squeeze Lemons



3. Add garlic and hot sauce to processor and blend for a few seconds until garlic is minced. I used the pre-minced garlic since I was out of cloves.



4. Add beans, spices, and salt





5. Add almond butter and lemon juice (use a strainer to keep seeds and pulp out)





6. Process for 1-2 minutes occasionally scraping the sides



7. Spoon into bowl and line the edge with olive oil and garnish with parsley




Enjoy it with some pita bread!

 

That looks pretty tasty,




but it's a dip not hummus, hummus means chick pea in Arabic.

 

Ya...you're right. The black beans can be substituted with chickpeas, or just about any bean for that matter. Normally I use tahini instead of almond butter, but was out of that and decided to experiment. Turned out great.

 

I need someone to send me some Uncle Brutha's I can't find a source in this frigid country

 

I would email or call the number on their site. http://www.unclebrutha.com/contact

Ask them if they'd be willing to ship to Canada. They are pretty reasonable and I've never had an issue with their communication.

If that doesn't work, then maybe we could work something out.

 

Just sent them an email.

 

Looks awesome!

 

Did you ever hear back from them Dougler?

 

Looks delicious!

 

No, but I think I signed up for their mailing list instead of sending them an email. I'm going to try again.

 

Exchanging emails with them now. just waiting on a shipping quote.

 

I need sniff-o-vision video card..

 

that looks so good
