How to Make Black Bean And Mango Dip

  1. Finely chop 1/2 medium red onion, 1 jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat), and 2 cloves garlic.
  2. Combine the chopped onion, jalapeño, and garlic with 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), 1 ripe mango (diced), 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, and the juice of 1 lime in a medium bowl.
  3. Optional: For an extra-smooth salsa, blend the onion, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, and cilantro in a food processor until smooth. Then, gently fold this mixture into the black beans and mango.
  4. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. (Start with 1/2 teaspoon of each and adjust as needed).
  5. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. This step is key to unlocking the best taste!
  6. Serve chilled with tortilla chips, as a topping for grilled chicken or fish, or as a filling for pita bread. Enjoy!
