Spicy Black Bean Purée

I posted this a week or so ago on BariatricPal.com and just realized I never shared it on my own blog - DOH!

Tasty protein packed recipe: Spicy Black Bean Purée (3 servings, 1/2 cup)

1 can organic black beans, rinsed and drained
2 tbsp fat free Greek yogurt
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 scoop protein power (unjur.y unflavored) - you can add 2 if u want but 1 disappears completely
Salt, pepper, dried parsley, cayenne to taste
 
Purée in a cuisinart until smooth- adjust Greek yogurt if you want it creamier. Delicious, and a half cup serving has 12g protein. 

The spiciness of the cayenne hides the protein powder taste really well. I pack up 1/2  cup servings of this to take to work, and it's great as a 1/4 cup serving with a bit of Laughing Cow light garlic & herbs.
