It seems I always come back to some of the same chefs! I loved this, it was quick, tasty and I could control the salt and fat. I left out the olive oil ( as one reviewer suggested) to save the fat and added a minced garlic clove and a minced jalepeno. I also omitted the cheese. Sorry to mess with your recipe so much! 
Here's to your health!

I wasn't too sure about making something like this in the microwave, but since I saw the good reviews I decided to give it a try and enjoyed it very much. I added a little too much broth because I was nervous about it being too dry, so next time I will put 1/2 cup rather than 3/4 cup.

Easy and good result. I can't wait til it cools down to see what kind of dip it will make! No reason to buy canned refried beans and I think you could even leave the oil out of these for a non fat version easily.
