Sweet Sixteen Bean Dip


This dip came about watching March Madness last year....as you can see we love College Sports in our house. We were watching the Cougs play Vandy last March and we were hoping the Cougs would make it to the Sweet Sixteen.....but we all know the outcome....Anyway I threw together a bunch on ingredients that I had in the pantry and fridge and it turned out pretty good.......I feel its always good to have a few chip and bean dip recipes....

1 16oz Can Refried Beans
1 8 0z Package Cream Cheese, room temp
1 14.5 oz Can of Diced Tomatoes, drained
1/4-1/2 C Nacho Style Jalapenos (depends on how spicy you want it)
1 Packet of Taco Seasoning
Hot Sauce to taste, I use Tapatio
2 C Mexican Cheese (Blend of Cheddar and Pepper jack)

Mix all ingredients except 1 Cup of the shredded cheese in a bowl and then pour into an 8x8 baking dish or a similar size. Top with the remaining cup of cheese...more if you like. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 min, until cheese is melted and dip is hot all the way through. Serve with Tortilla Chips.

Anna & I have been watching "The Next Food Network Star" and we can't help but think that you would have kicked butt on the show. Looking forward to you bringing your cooking skills to Pullman!
