Easy Black Bean Dip or Sandwich Spread

Description: Ditch the unhealthy luncheon meats and opt for this spread full of vegetable protein. This version doesn't have any garlic or onion so it works well in an office "brown-bag" lunch. But if you are feeling brave go ahead and add a clove or two of garlic and/or 4-5 green onions.

Ingredients:

• 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can black beans, drained
• 0.5 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomatoes, petite diced, drained
• 1 lime, juice of, whole
• fresh cilantro, handful

Steps:

1. Puree all of the ingredients in a food processor.
2. As a sandwich filler, serve on whole-wheat bread with fresh spinach and sliced tomato.
3. As a dip, serve with fresh veggies such as baby carrots, cukes and red bell pepper slices.
