Black Bean Sauce

This is my new go-to recipe for busy weeknights. I top in on taco salad instead of meat, or you can use it as a bean dip with chips, or you can serve it over rice and top with a can of corn, cheese, and sour cream.

**Tip - frozen cilantro doesn’t look pretty, but it tastes just as good. I usually have a little bit of cilantro in the freezer to toss in the bean sauce.**

• 1 TBS olive oil
• 1 clove minced garlic
• 1-2 minced jalepenos, depending on how spicy you want it
• 1/4 tsp cumin
• 1 15oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 TBS tamari gluten free soy sauce
• 1 tsp lime juice
• 1/3 cup water
• cilantro

1. Heat oil and saute garlic and jalepeno for a minute.  Add cumin, beans, tamari, and simmer for 5 mins.
2. Dump all in blender and blend until it is a thick sauce, using water and lime juice to thin as needed.
