How to prepare a low-fat zippy red bean dip
To prepare this delicious dip, start by making a coarse puree with the red beans. You can use a blender or food processor to get a uniform texture, or mash them by hand if you prefer a rustic, chunky consistency.
Once you have the base of mashed beans, place it in a bowl and add the low-fat cheddar cheese, low-fat plain yogurt, garlic powder, chopped jalapeño peppers, chili powder, onion powder, and hot sauce to taste. Mix all the ingredients well until you achieve a homogeneous mixture with a balanced flavor that is both creamy and spicy.
Finally, serve the dip at room temperature to fully enjoy its flavors. It is perfect for accompanying tortilla chips, fresh vegetables, or as a complement to your favorite dishes, offering a low-fat option without sacrificing intense and spicy flavor.
