BAKED BEAN DIP (Sante Fe Bean Dip…if you prefer!)
I’ve always called it Baked Bean Dip…but it’s not Baked BEANS dip…it’s just a bean dip that’s baked. There, that should clear it up.
Full of good carbs and protein, this dip is almost a meal! To save some carbs, I just eat it out of a bowl with diced avocados and tomatoes, and a spoonful of sour cream. An excellent dish to take to a party or potluck…everyone loves it.

This dip sounds so good! You can;t go wrong with beans, cheese, and texmex flavours!
Question! I’m not a huge fan of regular refried beans, but I absolutely love refried BLACK beans. Ever attempted this recipe with them?
It would work great with those!
This looks so good! I found you via foodgawker. Your pics are beautiful and your blog looks fantastic. I’ve only noodled around a little bit, but it all looks great. Can’t wait to read more!
This sounds like a really great dip!
I made this bean dip recipe and it was delicious! I have a bean dip recipe I’ve always made and this is so much better than that. Thank you for the recipe, please keep them coming!
wonder if we could make it in crock-pot???? have you tried this or would you recommend??
That would work wonderfully, actually!
I made a huge thing of this on Christmas and everyone ate it right up! I couldn’t believe how quickly it was gone and all of the compliments I got. Thanks for the recipe!
I like your style! I also like to eat this with tomatoes and avocados, but I’ve started using Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and hardly notice the different, plus it boosts the protein at 20+ grams per cup for some brands.
