Ingredients

  • 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
  • 3/4 cup salsa or picante sauce
  • 1/2 cup cheese (shredded or cubed)

Tips

You can use any cheese. Cheddar or American work well.

Mash cooked black, pinto, or kidney beans to replace the refried beans. This will decrease the sodium in the recipe.
