I love being a mom-in-law! Today my beautiful daughter (in-law) sent me a text asking for a recipe for her office (she’s a wonderful dentist) “Cinco de Mayo” party next week. I guess you can say she knows where to turn when looking for a recipe. I immediately thought of one that I wrote for a cookbook several years ago, however that recipe never made the final cut. Here’s the recipe…
| 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained |
| 1 cup tomato salsa |
| 2 tablespoons Weber Gourmet Burger Seasoning |
| 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce |
| 1 to 2 tablespoons canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, or to taste1 to 2 tablespoons adobo sauce from canned chipotle in adobo |
| 1 teaspoon Spice Islands Ground Cumin |
| 2 tablespoons Mazola Extra Virgin Olive Oil |
| ½ to 1 cup shredded Monterrey Jack or Queso Fresco cheese |
| Tortilla chips for dipping
Directions: Combine black beans, salsa, burger seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, chipotles, adobo sauce, cumin, and oil in a blender or food processor; pulse until blended but still chunky. Place bean mixture in a two-quart casserole dish. Top mixture with shredded cheese. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15-20 minutes or until slightly golden and bubbly. Serve with chips for dipping. Note: Tonight when I made this dip I was out of canned chipotle peppers, so I substituted 1 tablespoon Chipotle Pepper Seasoning and 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke! It rocked!!! Quick Facts: |
