Bean Dip

As we all know, football season is here!! YAY! With that being said, a lot of us will have tailgate parties, people over to watch the "Big Game" or just want to hit the couch "the family" to cheer on your favorite team. I have a really good Bean Dip recipe I would like to share with you guys. I made this today for my hubby and I to enjoy as we relaxed and settled in for a day of "Big Games".

Bean Dip

1 can FF Refried Beans
1/2 c sweet onion, finely chopped (minced if possible)
jalapeno peppers (I use the pickled ones in a jar), diced (as many or as few as you like)
1/2c of your favorite picante sauce
1/2 pack of taco seasoning plus a dash of cumin
1/2c shredded cheddar or montery jack cheese

Mix first 5 ingredients in a sauce pan over medium low heat. Simmer about 10 minutes until heated well. Add shredded cheese, stir well, turn heat to low and simmer for about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and place in a plastic container w/lid. Serve right away or allow to sit for awhile.

***The longer it sits, the better it gets!!

It's good with tortilla chips, but to keep it healthy, it is GREAT with celery sticks.

Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!!
