[recipe] The Dip
Tonight's 'oh crap we need to clean out the fridge' creation was elegant, simple, and unfathomably delicious. I call it The Dip.
Ingredients
2 c. black beans, cooked
3/4 c. salsa
1/4 c. minced onion
1/4 c. minced green bell pepper
2-3 pinches minced fresh cilantro
The measurements are approximate because I was just using the last of what was already there. Toss everything but the cilantro in a saucepan and heat on medium until it bubbles, add the cilantro, give it a good stir, then pour it into a bowl. Serve warm as a dip to polish off the last of those tortilla chips that really have to go.
I assume your salsa is going to be as spicy as you like spicy things, but if you want to give it an extra kick, chop a hot pepper into it or give it a dash of Tabasco. You could also garnish with cheese. Since Mister is lactose intolerant and I can take or leave it, we didn't.
