Here is an equally quick and dirty bean dip. I was hungry one night, there was no food in the house, and I'm perpetually broke - so I made this. It's actually reasonably filling when eaten with some soft flour tortillas, such as those made by the Santa Fe Tortilla Company.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Heat the beans in a large saucepan on a burner, medium-high heat. Now is a good time toss some tortillas in the oven, if you're going that route.
- Shred some cheese
- After the beans are hot and sort of semi-liquid, put them in a big bowl (remember to turn off the stove!). Add the cheese; stir it around so it gets good and melted.
- Now mix some salsa and/or sofrito in, and a big splash of Cholula (or if you're me, 5 or 6 big splashes).
- Finally stir in a bunch of lime juice. You want to make sure it stays fairly solid (letting the beans cool a bit will help), but other than that, more is better in this case.
Enjoy.
Note: Pretty much all of this is optional. I haven't been paid in three weeks, and I'm finding that just beans, lime juice, and Cholula is a pretty decent meal.
