Black Bean Guacamole is a delicious and hearty twist on the classic guacamole recipe. The creamy texture of avocados pairs perfectly with the slight bite of black beans, creating a dip that’s both satisfying and packed with protein. Fresh lime juice, cilantro, and a touch of spice bring all the flavors together, making this guacamole ideal for serving with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos, or even as a side for grilled dishes. It’s a great way to add some extra fiber and nutrients to your favorite Mexican-inspired meals.
