Sassy Bean Dip

Well its New Year's Eve 2013.   "Out with the old and in with the new" and other fun concepts to help us transition into 2014.  My personal contribution to this evening of remembrance and anticipation is a simple (but Sassy) bean dip.  :-)

The photos tell the story.  The tongue does the tasting.

Ingredients:

• 1 can pinto beans, well rinsed and drained 
• Juice of 1-2 limes
• Tomato (skinned, seeded and chopped)
• Cilantro
• Parsley
• Garlic (2 cloves minced)
• 3/4 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp salt
• Cayenne (dash)

Start with some Campari tomatoes.  Remove the stem.

Carefully place the tomatoes into boiling water and count to 10.

 The skins should be easy to peel.  Who wants skins in their dip after all?

Seed the tomatoes and assemble the ingredients, include the stems.

 Find someone who likes to push buttons and blend the ingredients.

 Spatula time.

Finished product....grab your favorite chip or veggie.
p.s. My helper notes that it may look awful, but its actually delicious!!!
