Ingredients
1 can (15 ounces) low-sodium black beans, drained and rinsed
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup thick, chunky salsa
1/2 cup light sour cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh green onions
2 ounces reduced-fat cheddar cheese, grated
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning.
Drain and rinse the canned black beans under cool water to remove excess sodium. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Mash the beans using a fork or potato masher until they reach your desired consistency—slightly chunky or smooth, as preferred.
Add the onion powder, dried oregano, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper to the mashed beans. Stir well to incorporate all the seasonings evenly.
Spread the seasoned bean mixture in an even layer on a shallow serving dish or platter.
Top the bean layer with the thick, chunky salsa, spreading it evenly across the surface.
Dollop or spread the light sour cream as the next layer, covering the salsa.
Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the sour cream layer.
Finish by garnishing with the chopped fresh green onions scattered across the top.
Serve immediately at room temperature or chilled, with tortilla chips or fresh vegetable crudités for dipping.
