Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Dice vegetables uniformly so they blend evenly throughout and present well as a dip.
Let the dip chill for at least 30 minutes before serving so flavors meld and the vinaigrette fully coats the beans.
Drain canned beans thoroughly and pat dry to prevent excess liquid from diluting the vinaigrette.
Taste and adjust seasoning before serving; acidic and spice levels vary by brand, so add extra vinegar or cumin as needed.

Substitutions

Apple cider vinegar → red wine vinegar (slightly deeper flavor, same ratio)
Red bell pepper → yellow or orange bell pepper (sweeter, milder flavor)
Roma tomatoes → cherry tomatoes, halved (juicier, less dense)
Jarred roasted red peppers → fresh roasted red peppers (more intense pepper flavor)
