Spicy Chipotle Black Bean Dip

Healthy, spicy, and very low fat! I think you'll like this if you like a little heat in your dip and, it's a little different than the many other good recipes posted here on 'Zaar. To reduce the heat, you can omit the adobo sauce, reduce the number of chipotle peppers, or use a mild salsa. I use my favorite brand of refried black beans; if you prefer, use canned black beans, drain and rinse, then mash them in a blender or food processor. Serve with tortilla chips. Note: This works just as well with refried pinto beans, which make a great foundation for bean nachos - just don't use too much salsa or your nachos will be soggy.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add onions, garlic and chipotle pepper. Stir and saute 5 to 7 minutes or until onion softens.
  2. 2
    Add cumin, oregano and adobo sauce (if using), stirring to awaken herb flavors, about 2 minutes.
  3. 3
    Reduce heat to medium and stir in refried beans. Splash salsa or Rotel around beans and stir to combine.
  4. 4
    Reduce heat to low and continue to cook beans, stirring occasionally, until warm throughout, 5 to 10 more minutes. Serve with tortilla chips for dipping.

This is the best bean dip I have ever had!!!! This one is all flavor!!!!!! The saute of the onions with the garlic and adobo peppers gives it such a smokey, wonderful flavor!!!!! I halved this recipe because I was making it for a two person lunch/snack. I couldn't find refried black beans, even in Arizona, go figure!!! So I used regular refried pinto beans and just added black beans to it for texture. I drained the rotel before adding it and I pretty much added the whole can of that. I like spicy so I added an extra 1/2 tsp of adobo sauce too. This recipe is definitely a keeper, wonderful job Ninja!!!!
