Yield: 12 servings
This is a great bean-and-cheese dip that not only tastes better than commercial ones but is healthier too.
Ingredients:
• 2 tablespoons (28 ml) olive oil
• ½ teaspoon crushed garlic
• 1 cup (160 g) finely chopped onion
• 1 jalapeño, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 2 cups (100 g) cooked kidney beans
• ½ cup (58 g) shredded Cheddar cheese
Preparation:
Heat oil in a skillet. Add garlic, onion, jalapeño, and chili powder and cook gently 4 minutes. Drain kidney beans, reserving juice. Process beans in a blender or food processor to a puree. Add to onion mixture and stir in 2 tablespoons of reserved bean liquid; mix well. Stir in cheese. Cook gently about 2 minutes, stirring until cheese melts. If mixture becomes too thick, add a little more reserved bean liquid. Spoon into serving dish and serve warm with tortilla chips.
