We are big dip eaters at our house. Whenever we have people over or go somewhere, I love making dips to share. There are so many dip recipes, the options are endless! This dip came to mind because whenever I make Copycat Healthy Taco Bell Mexican Pizzas, I always use the left over refried beans and mix them with the left over enchilada sauce to make a quick dip. I make my enchilada sauce using chipotle chilis in adobo sauce (like this
), so it really kicks up the dip with some spice. My husband and I love it. Anyway, that’s how I came up with the idea for this Creamy Chipotle Bean Dip.
This Creamy Chipotle Bean Dip combines cream cheese, refried beans, chipotle chilis and a bit of pepperjack cheese. It’s super easy to make and is a huge crowd pleaser. Minimal ingredients makes for a quick and easy dip.
This dip can also be heated or served cold – both are great options! If you do heat it in the oven, I would add a layer of pepperjack cheese to the top, because you really cant go wrong with more cheese, you know?
