  1. so very awesome, all of the flavors together just waiting to tease your tongue. excellent party dish!, those that dont like refried beans from a can, there are instand refried beans that come in a bag in most stores. i rather have those than any brand of canned beans there is.

  2. This was SO YUMMY!! Everyone at the shower loved it!! The only thing I did different was to use a package of taco mix instead of the salsa and cumin. Great dip and I can't wait to have a reson to make this again!!
     
  3. This dip was pretty good, except next time I will use ground beef instead of those yucky re-fried beans. Just my opinion, these things are gross!! I took this dip to a swimming BBQ, and the swimmers quite enjoyed it, so there is no accounting for taste. (my daughter included!) But, other than that, pretty yummy, and you can make it go a long way!
