Honey Lime Black Bean Dip

By: Evan Burke

The best parts of summer are relaxing and eating food by the pool. Greek yogurt mixed into dips is a perfect way to fulfill both requirements while still being somewhat healthy. With yogurt dips, the possibilities are limitless; almost anything goes good with a dip!

This flavorful black bean, lime, and honey, Greek yogurt dip is a delicious treat for the long hot days of summer. The dip tastes great with salty foods like tortilla chips and pretzels, and equally as good with fresh veggies. It’s refreshing to eat on a hot summer day and is quick and easy to make as a snack or appetizer. Plus, using Greek yogurt in dips rather than mayonnaise or sour cream makes them healthy and delicious. Add this dip to your poolside menu this summer.



Honey Lime Black Bean Dip


One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
½ cup Stonyfield Greek Yogurt
¼ cup salsa or hot sauce
2 Tablespoons lime juice
½-1 Tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Place the beans, salsa, Greek yogurt, lime juice, honey, cumin, chili powder, and garlic powder in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth and creamy. Serve with your favorite chips or fresh veggies.
