Vegetarian Mexican Baked Hummus Dip

I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m basically only invited to social gatherings for one reason: in hopes that I’ll bring my famous Mexican Baked Hummus Dip. Traditionally made with ground sirloin or spicy chorizo, I recently set out on a mission to create a meatless version that was just as delicious as the original. 

In case you haven’t heard, National Hummus Day is May 13th and you better believe I intend to celebrate! Of course, any time I’m working with Sabra hummus, I can pretty much count on the appetizer being a home run. That said, I was determined to create an appetizer that tasted “meaty” but didn’t contain any actual meat.

My solution? Two types of beans: a combination of both black and kidney. By combining creamy black beans with savory kidney beans, I ended up with a super hearty dip that didn’t make anyone miss the meat at all.

To show the ease and versatility of this recipe, I took a couple different photos showing various options for both cheeses and toppings. Whether you use sharp cheddar, mild cheddar, monterrey jack or even mozzarella cheese, you really can’t go wrong.

For toppings, I love to mix textures like creamy avocado with crunchy red onion but the truth is – it will taste great with whatever you have on hand! Love cilantro? Add it! Hate red onions? Skip them! Make it your own. Just promise me you’ll make this addictive baked hummus dip.

Your chips are waiting.

    I made this for my family reunion with 50+ people and it was a hit with rave reviews!! Half was devoured the first night and the remainder was even eaten cold the next day with no complaints. The only edit I made was to substitute red bell peppers on top instead of tomatoes which were served on the side along with avocado due to allergies. I also used a plant-based cheese to accommodate our vegan cousins. This was so easy that I was almost embarrassed to share the recipe after everyone raved about my cooking skills! Lol!! I’m already planning to make it again this weekend for a game day potluck with friends. Thanks for sharing this great recipe that’s SO fast, easy and delicious!!!

    I’m feeling that this is the kind of dip that won’t actually make it to a gathering because I’ll eat it all beforehand! Heck, I might even make it for dinner one day this week. Totally reasonable.
