Okay, so I haven't actually tried any other bean dip, as far as I can remember. But I am still fully convinced that this is, in fact, the world's best bean dip. We don't have it that often, but when we do, I eat a lot of it! It's good on quesadillas (which are also easy and customizable) or tortilla chips. Today we even figured out it's nice on pita chips too—the commissary was out of tortilla chips.
When my dad worked in a restaurant during college, he learned this recipe. Now, everyone in my family loves it...and it's so simple, only three ingredients!
First, scoop in the refried beans.
Next, the salsa.
Estimating is completely fine! I just dumped in about a 1/3 to 1/2 jar of this salsa.
Stir in a few handfuls of cheese until it's all hot and melty, and it's done!
The salsa and cheese in this bean dip can be increase or decreased according to preference. Any heat of salsa can be used, and any type of cheese. Use quesadillas, tortilla chips, or pita chips to dip in it.
