A few weeks ago, my neighbors were having a dinner party and I volunteered to bring an appetizer. Since chips and dip are always hits at any party, I decided to make a new dip!! I added the ingredients into a disposable pan, popped it in the oven, and the end result was definitely a hit!!
The cheesy layer on top was my favorite part, but the warmth of the dip (since it is cooked) was an added bonus since it was a cool Texas night (rare, I know)!
Plus, living in Texas, I get points for making a “Texas” dip, right??
This is the perfect snack/appetizer for any gathering and a real crowd winner!!
Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- (2) 16 oz. cans refried beans
