- Black beans: You could also use pinto beans.
- Chipotle in adobo sauce and the adobo sauce: Adds a smoky spicy flavor. If you are gluten intolerant like I am, make sure to read the labels. Some chipotle in adobo brands have wheat.
- Maple syrup: Adds sweetness. You could also use agave syrup or brown sugar.
- Tamari: I used low-sodium gluten-free tamari because I like to control the amount of salt. You could also use soy sauce or liquid aminos.
- Vegetable broth: Adds flavor. I like to use low-sodium vegetable broth to control the amount of salt.
- Salt and pepper: Enhances flavors and adds flavor.

💭 Tips
- Start with less chipotle peppers if you don't like really spicy foods. You can always add more, but you can't take it away.
- When you are mixing the ingredients in a food processor is the perfect time to add more chipotle to your liking.
- If you really don't like things very spicy, add only the adobo sauce, and leave out the chipotle peppers.
- That's also a great time to add more vegetable broth if you want a thinner consistency.
