Gah! That moment when you realized it’s 5:00 and you have nothing planned for dinner. Nothing. Zilch. Nada. The kids are starting to get a little edgy and you know you need to fill them up fast to avoid dealing with things like meltdowns. On nights like this, this easy bean dip recipe is one of my favorite go-to dinners.
Keep these ingredients on hand so you have them when you need.
Easy Bean Dip Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground Beef
- 4 cans Fat Free Refried Beans (or make your own)
- 1 cup Horizon Organic Sour Cream
- 1 package Horizon Organic Shredded Mexican Cheese
- Salt to taste
- Serve with Tortilla Chips
Directions
- Start by browning the ground beef in a pot instead of a pan, you’ll make the bean dip in the same pan you ground the beef in so you have less to clean! 😉
Tip: While you’re at it, brown up double the meat and freeze the extra half to prep for next time you need dinner in a pinch!
2. Drain the grease, then add in the remaining ingredients. Keep heat on medium and make sure to stir every few minutes.
3. It’s ready as soon as the cheese melts into the beans!
Serve in a bowl with tortilla chips and a veggie on the side — this meal is quick, tasty and loved by my entire family!
You can also make the same exact recipe in a crock pot and it’s perfect to take with you for a potluck!
Don’t forget to top with extra cheese and a dollop of sour cream.
Also, leftovers make a great burrito for lunch the following day!
