Easy Bean Dip
Description
Easy Bean Dip combines canned refried beans with cream cheese and sour cream for a smooth, creamy texture. The taco seasoning brings a warm, mild spice, balanced by diced jalapenos and canned mild green chiles that add subtle heat and flavor complexity. The dip is folded with shredded cheddar cheese, which melts during baking, creating a rich, gooey surface. Baking the mixture until hot and bubbly allows flavors to meld and the cheese to form a golden top. Finally, fresh green onions add a crisp, fresh note as a garnish. This dip works well chilled or warm, perfect for serving with tortilla chips at casual gatherings or as a tasty snack.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces refried beans canned
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup sour cream

Instructions
