Place all ingredients in food processor in the order listed above. Puree until smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides with a spatula.
Taste and adjust flavors as needed. You may want to add more jalapeno for added spice, more salt to bring out the flavors or a touch more of garlic or lime zest.
Serve with your favorite raw veggies or tortilla chips. Or, use in burritos, tacos, wraps or sandwiches.
Garnish with desired toppings from above. I highly recommend swirling a good amount of the vegan sour cream in the center.
Store leftover black bean dip (without the garnishes) in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
