  1. Yum! Hubby and I ate this for dinner, as I have been craving it for weeks. I used a little less cheese and added some diced tomato. I like what you did with the avocado. Next time I might add some cilantro (fresh coriander) to the avocado mixture. Will be making it again for a Christmas BBQ very soon!
     
  2. Great dip! The only change I would make next time would be to reduce the beans by half, and add some canned chilies to give them more zip. Thanks for the recipe!
     
  3. This dip was fantastic! I made it and brought it up to the cottage, and everyone loved it. The only thing I would change is to add some more spice somehow...perhaps by buying a can of refried beans that are already spicy, or by adding something to the beans to make them spicier. I will definatly be making this again!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am in a house of males that include my husband, two young boys, our dog Max, cats Harley and Hunter and a newly adopted iguana. Talk about being out numbered. We relocated to Idaho after living in Washington for about 13 years. I love the Pacific northwest but have fell in love with Idaho too. The people are wonderful and the community is rural enough to give my children the childhood I want them to enjoy. I got my passion of cooking from my step mom she is an amazing cook who can improvise any meal and have it come out wonderful. I have no idea how she does it but its what I aspire to achieve. I stumbled across recipezaar by accident a few years ago while acquainting myself with the internet and have been addicted ever since. This cooking community of people just amaze me. I have been welcomed with a warmness that is unsurpassed. Everyone has shared their recipes, knowledge, humor, the lists goes on and on...U guys are wonderful. I tell everyone I know about this website in hopes of inspiring all of the would be chefs out there to keep experimenting because its doesnt have to be complicated to be yummy. I love preparing a meal that makes my family say make this again mom its great, its a satisfaction that my day to day job does not provide. My pet peeves are lying, selfishness and judgemental people. I am raising my boys to be loving and giving young men. I hope that my love of cooking rubs off on them and that they will remember the times we have shared playing in the kitchen.
