To make this hummus light and airy, we boil canned chickpeas in water with a little baking soda to make them extra soft. To jazz up the hummus for serving, sprinkle the top with cumin or ground sumac, or drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil.
Southwestern Layered Bean Dip
Plenty of black beans, salsa and chopped fresh vegetables mean a healthy amount of dietary fiber in this Tex-Mex-inspired layered dip. We use reduced-fat sour cream along with full-fat (and full-flavored) cheese to make the dip lighter without compromising great taste.
