Hot Southwest Bean Dip
by Melanie on February 20, 2010

This is the utlimate hot cheesy bean dip! The first time I made this was probably about 20 years ago. I think my Mom had cut the recipe out of the newspaper, and we made it together for a family game night. I remember it was so fun to try a new recipe together, and I was so proud of how it turned out! I loved it and still do! I made this yummy dip for a little superbowl party we had. With hearty layers of: refried beans, browned sausage, onion, chili peppers, salsa verde, cheese and my favorite part…avocados, you could have this for dinner! Mmmm–fantastic! Hope you enjoy!

Mmm… I love this dip, too, sis. I guess I will have to start making it now that I can't come over and have it at your house.
Oh wow..this does look like the ultimate cheesy dip!
I LOVE THIS DIP!!!!!!! I am so excited you posted it because I don't have a copy but I remember it being super duper yummy! :) That is fun that you remember making it with Mom a long time ago…it's fun to look back sometimes!
This looks like our next dish to bring to our jam night. Thanks. W
I'd love to dive right into that with a giant tortilla chip.
MMM. Looks good!
WOW looks so great – I am going to invite people over just so I can make this!!!
Banana Bread last night…this tonight! We loved it! For some reason I have been afraid of making a layered dip like this but it just looked to good to pass. I ended up doing a slight variation since I was working with what was already in the kitchen and substituted seasoned fake beef crumbles for the sausage.
I made this tonight for a football game party and it was delicious! Thanks for the recipe! :)
