This is good as a side dish but would also be good as a dip or a filling in a flour tortilla.

1 16-oz. can FF refried beans
1 15-oz. can pinto or navy beans, rinsed
1/2 cup salsa or picante sauce
2/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
4 scallions, sliced or use onions

combine refried beans, pinto beans, salsa and 1/3 cup cheese in a saucepan.  Cook over medium heat, stirring, untilo mixture is hot the cheese is melted.  Spoon bean mixture into a 2-qt. baking dish and sprinkle remaining 1/3 cup cheese and scallionsover the top. 

Broil until the cheese is lightly browned, about 2  minutes.

Serves 6, 1/2 cup each
