How to make Bean dip from canned refried beans #superbowl #biggame #partyrecipe

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: softened cottage cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: monterey jack cheese

Monterey jack is often less expensive and melts well.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Plain yogurt provides similar tanginess at a lower cost.

jalapeños

🥗Healthier: banana peppers

💰Cheaper: green bell peppers

Green bell peppers provide crunch without the heat.

Slice the pickled jalapeños into smaller pieces to spread the flavor throughout the dip.

If you don't like heat, substitute jalapeños with white vinegar in a one-to-one ratio.

Open the can of refried beans and assess the consistency; add more jalapeño juice or vinegar if needed.

Mix in the sliced jalapeños with the refried beans.

Add dry ingredients (paprika, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, sugar) three at a time, mixing in between to prevent clumping.

Mash the refried beans with a potato masher for about three minutes until smooth, twisting at the bottom to break down whole beans.

Taste and adjust consistency or flavor if necessary.
