That's right -- my husband had a snow day yesterday! And since I don't work on Tuesdays, the baby and I had a snow day, or Sandy Day if you prefer, too. We really enjoyed each other's company by doing wholesome activities like the budget and dumping out plants that are dead. But, really, it was so great just to have an extra day at home that we really did enjoy each other, in spite of chores. Like taking all the dishes out of the cupboards and putting that rubber cupboard lining that can go in the washer under them (which we measured and cut with a box-cutter, of course), and then putting all the dishes back. Romance.
But my husband really made the day delicious (and gassy) with this bean dip. It is so good; it melts in your mouth like butter! (When you see the recipe you will understand why.) It's inspired by this book by Madeleine Kamman. My husband loves her and he takes it seriously when she says to use butter.
Here's what he did:
Microwave one can of black beans (Goya, please), that you drained and rinsed, until very warm to the touch. Add 3-4 T plain yogurt and the same amount of butter. Add 1-2 t kosher salt, 1 T lime juice, one minced shallot, two cloves of pressed garlic and some cumin (optional) and something to make it spicy (optional). Mash it all up and serve with chips and salsa.
I promise you will not be able to stop eating it |
