BEFORE YOU KNOW IT BEAN DIP (MAGIC BULLET)

Not all bean dip comes out of that creepy little can. You can make hearty, delicious, all-natural bean dip in seconds. This dip is great both warm and cold. If you go for the warm version, try adding 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese to the ingredients before you blend it. (If you don't have room, partially mix the ingredients, then add the cheese.) Take the blade off, place the Shaker/Steamer Top on the cup and microwave for about 2-3 minutes (until warm throughout). Give the dip another quick Pulse or two, then serve immediately. The warm version goes perfectly with nachos or sliced crusty Italian bread. Courtesy of the Magic Bullet recipe booklet. TIPS: Use your favorite type of bean. Black beans can be substituted with pinto beans, white beans, whatever you're into. Black Bean Sauce Add a cup of broth to make a perfect sauce for pouring over chicken or fish. Black Bean Soup Add 2 cups of broth to make a zesty, flavorful soup -- a great way to use any leftover dip. Throw in a few shrimp for a real treat.

HOT BEAN DIP

This bean dip is sooooo good. It is easy to make and is always a hit. I make it for my Super Bowl party each year and it is always gone before half time!! Two cheeses and refried beans are baked with mild spices to create a creamy dip. Serve with tortilla chips.
