How to Make Low Fat Hot Mexican Bean Dip

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a food processor or blender, combine 1 (15-ounce) can of rinsed and drained black beans, 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream, 1 tablespoon chili powder, and 1 teaspoon ground cumin.
Blend until completely smooth. Add a splash of water if needed to achieve desired consistency.
Spread the bean mixture evenly into a 9-inch glass pie dish.
Sprinkle 1 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese over the bean mixture.
Top with 1/4 cup chopped scallions, 1/4 cup sliced black olives, and 1-2 finely chopped jalapeños (adjust to your spice preference).
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the dip is heated through. Alternatively, microwave on high for 5-6 minutes, or until heated through.
Let cool slightly before serving with your favorite reduced-fat tortilla chips.
