Just love these boldly flavored beans as a side dish but they’d also work as a quick appetizer with tortilla chips on the side.This is adapted from an old issue of Eating Well Magazine
Ingredients
- 1 16-ounce can fat-free refried beans, preferably spicy shopping list
- 1 15-ounce can no-salt-added pinto beans, rinsed shopping list
- 1/2 cup prepared salsa shopping list
- 2/3 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese, divided shopping list
- 4 scallions, sliced shopping list
How to make it
- Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
- Combine refried beans, pinto beans, salsa and 1/3 cup cheese in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the mixture is hot and the cheese is melted, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Spoon the bean mixture into a 2-quart baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1/3 cup cheese and scallions. Broil until the cheese is lightly browned, about 2 minutes.

I am asked to make this often and I add extra chili powder or smoked paprika I love it with a lot of heat. This recipe gets a high 5 from me.
