Notes

  • Optional Additions: Chopped Green Chilies, Green Onions, and Jalapenos
  • Refried Beans -- you can use any canned refried beans. My favorite refried beans are the Rosarito Spicy Jalapeno refried beans. They have the perfect amount of spice.
  • Sour Cream -- I suggest using full-fat sour cream to make it extra creamy.
  • Cream Cheese -- use softened full-fat cream cheese. If the cream cheese is at room temperature, it makes it easier to combine the ingredients.
  • Taco Seasoning -- a mix of chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper adds so much flavor to this hot bean dip.
  • Hot Sauce -- I like to use different types of hot sauce in this bean and cheese dip recipe -- Taco Bell Hot Sauce, Cholula, Tapatio, or your favorite hot sauce. You can also use your favorite jarred salsa.
  • Mexican Cheese -- a mix of creamy Mexican cheeses makes the perfect cheesiest bean dip.
  • Cilantro -- top with fresh chopped cilantro to add freshness to this hot bean and cheese dip.
