Cheddar and Bean Dip

One of my favorite appetizers from Mexican restaurants is the cheesy bean dip that is brought out with the homemade tortilla chips. The melted cheddar cheese on the beans is definitely a cherry on top to the flavorful beans. It was always an explosion in my mouth in the best way possible, so I decided to recreate it at Kathey Jo’s Kitchen. Try it—I promise you won’t regret it!

This easy to make dip reminds me of how well cheese and beans go together…it’s a match made in heaven! All the ingredients are pretty straight forward, so you won’t have trouble finding them if you don’t already have them in your pantry. You can totally tailor the jalapeño amount if you’re really not into spicy foods. Whenever I want an extra kick, I add more, sometimes even doubling it...
