Im having vegan friends for diner this evening. So wanted a simple cheap dipping sauce for apertive. Serve with grissini,picos or tortilla chips

This basic bean dip is easier to make than a homemade hummus and is one of my favorite go-to spreads for bread. It has quite a bit of garlic, so if you're not too crazy about garlic, reduce to 3 cloves. I have also made other variations using different herbs, chiles and even Tabasco that are equally as delicious. Feel free to add your favorite herbs! If you are using canned beans, one can will do the job.

If using canned beans, use two 15oz cans and drain well. Follow the rest of the recipe as normal.I make my bean dip with 6 chiles, which yields a spicier result. For your dip, you can follow these rough guidelines:2 chiles=mild3 chiles=medium4 chiles=medium spicy5 chiles=spicy6 chiles=SPICY!For a smokier flavor, use 1-3 chipotle peppers in adobo depending on the degree of spiciness you want. It'll definitely be a crowd pleaser!This dip is delicious served chilled, at room temperature, or piping hot. My personal preference is served hot. Simply transfer the dip from the blender to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for a couple of minutes until thoroughly heated. Beans burn easily, so stir frequently!

I remember a friends moms making this dip and it was so good I had to make it for my fiancé. He enjoyed it so much every sunday for football he would beg me to make it. I sometimes add more cheese or some queso dip to spice it up a little more. But here is the basic recipe. Enjoy everyone. P.s it doesn't cost a lot to make which is the best part! =)

Got this recipe from an old friend. I use Harvest Cheddar Sun Chips to dip or spoon it over a bowl of rice. Hope you enjoy!

This delightful bean dip was discovered due to an argument and subsequent bet about what canned bean dip was made of, a bet which was won by flavor!

I like beans, don't you?

family recipe. Great when made a day ahead.

I found this recipe in a crockpot cookbook. I made it instead of buying store bought bean dip and got about three times the amount for about the same price of one, and it was SO much better! Hope you enjoy!

The bounty of spring vegetables are full of anti-oxidative properties!Apparently, the nutritive value of vegetables is more than tripled if eaten in season. It's filled with the flavors of spring! Recipe by pogue
