"I don't if this bears any resemblance to other bean dips, living or dead, but I just threw a bunch of stuff I like in my food processor and I've adjusted it over time. I use fresh pinto beans cooked in our pressure cooker, but canned beans should work as well. Also good with black beans or white beans."
