Ingredients:

  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup guacamole
  • 1 cup salsa (store-bought or homemade)

  • ½ cup diced tomatoes
  • ¼ cup sliced black olives
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Tortilla chips, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the black bean base: In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the black beans, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 3–4 minutes, mashing the beans slightly with the back of a spoon until heated through and slightly thickened. Set aside to cool.
  2. Layer the dip: In a medium serving dish or pie dish, spread the black bean mixture evenly on the bottom. Next, layer the guacamole over the beans, followed by the salsa, and then the sour cream.
  3. Top with cheese and veggies: Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the sour cream. Then, add diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, and green onions on top.
  4. Chill and serve: Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled with tortilla chips for dipping.
