Directions

1. DRAIN AND RINSE THE BEANS IN COLD WATER IN A SIEVE UNTIL THE WATER RUNS CLEAR. LEAVE TO DRAIN. WHILE DRAINING, PREPARE LEMON JUICE AND GARLIC.
2. PLACE CITRUS JUICE AND ZEST, JALAPENO SLICES AND GARLIC IN A MIXING BOWL. LEAVE TO SIT A FEW MINUTES (I FIND THIS TAKES THE EDGE OFF THE RAW GARLIC). ADD THE DRAINED BEANS. ADD THE VINEGAR AND CHOPPED ONION.
3. USING A HAND MIXER, PUREE THE CONTENTS OF THE BOWL UNTIL SMOOTH. ADD THE SALT, PEPPER AND AVOCADO. PUREE UNTIL SMOOTH AND DESIRED PEPPER IS ACHIEVED. ADJUST THE SEASONINGS TO YOUR TASTE. STORE IN TUPPERWARE FOR A WEEK OR TWO. FLAVOR WILL LIKELY BE ENHANCED IN A DAY.
