Description
We’ve put a Southwestern spin on Greek hummus by swapping black beans for the chickpeas and triangle-shaped bell pepper slices for the pita chips. To entice kids to try new foods, we offer tasting samples while kids are lining up for lunch. It’s a fun way to expose kids to unique ingredients they may never have tried. This is one of our favorite dishes to share with them, and we also especially love it because it matches our company colors (black and green).
Ingredients
- 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 large green bell pepper, sliced in triangles
- Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
Instructions

Notes
Prep options: Raid the produce section to make this dip fun. Red bell peppers, as well as carrots and cucumbers, also make good dippers for this hummus.
