I love the texture of this bean dip - it is very, very creamy. I used my blender to process this smooth, and am glad that I did. I used organic pinto beans, omitted the cilantro (we don't like it very well) and doubled the spice mixture. I think next time I would add more of the spice mixture. I used Pace Organics Medium Salsa. Made for Photo Tag.

Muy bueno! I made a double batch of the Zippy Zonya Mexi Mix, and I'm really looking forward to trying it in tacos, burritos, etc. I love that it doesn't have any salt or preservatives or other such nonsense. I added some onion powder. For the dip I used a can of fat-free refried pinto beans. I didn't puree it in the food processor; I just stirred it all together with a fork and let it be kind of chunky. I doubled the green onions and the Mexi Seasoning. Next time I might use even more of the seasoning! It has a great flavor. My husband and I just love bean dip, and will definitely make this healthier, more flavorful alternative to the name-brand stuff on a regular basis.
