Homemade refried bean dip
There's this canned refried bean dip that you can buy at the grocery store in the chip aisle and I've secretly been in love with it... until this.
This Mexican-inspired refried bean dip is easy to make, healthy, and SO delicious! If you've already got some leftovers of my favorite homemade nacho cheese on hand, then you are only about 5 minutes away from bean dip bliss!
If you don't have homemade nacho cheese, here's a really great cashew queso that will work perfectly in this bean dip, and will still leave you with a little extra vegan nacho cheese dip for snacking, even after you make this bean dip!
Serve with baked chipotle chili tortilla chips and enjoy!

How to make refried bean dip
Grab a bowl. Add one can of vegan refried beans (or use 2 cups of homemade!), nacho cheese (make my homemade recipe or buy some here), canned fire roasted diced green chilis, and a mixture of seasonings that work together like homemade taco seasoning - chili powder, garlic and onion powder, crushed red pepper, dried cumin, and salt (Photo #1).
Mix it all together until well combined (Photo #2)!
Top with pico de gallo for garnish if you like and serve with a generous helping of corn tortilla chips!
This dip is best served at room temp or oven hot. To heat, place dip mixture in oven safe dish and cover with foil. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes or until hot and bubbly!
