Black Bean with Cilantro Spread / Dip

A quick-to-fix spread/dip to serve for a party or tailgate, or use as a vegetarian lunch entree with pita bread and veggie sticks. Menu ideas abound ~ spread on roasted vegetables or grilled meat sandwiches. Serve with an open-faced grilled beef sandwich on whole-wheat bread with stir-fried vegetables and pineapple sherbet. Best served at room temperature because chilling makes it too thick to use as a dip. This version is low-fat, and if beans are rinsed and no salt is added, it makes a good choice for heart-healthy and diabetes-friendly diets.
