Hot Cheddar Bean Dip

flower7's Note:

I adopted this from the Recipezaar account. A great bean dip that's a bit different from others. I sometimes add a little extra cheese or hot sauce. Serving size is an estimate.

Followed this recipe exactly. Had it for my super bowl party and I am sorry to say..no one ate it. People tried it but did not finish it. I will make it again and play around with it.

I can only give this 3 starts but I have to say that it could be my fault for using the wrong ingredients. All I had was fat-free cheddar so that's what I used and as a result, I felt the dip was really pretty bland. I think the recipe lends itself well to modifications based on taste so I will try it again using either a sharp cheddar (as directed) or possibly pepperjack. I mixed the ingredients together in a food processor to ensure consistency and for ease of preparation.

We didn't care for this, had a weird twang, but I think it was the brand of pintos I used. I'm going to try it again using a better brand of beans.
