Nacho Dip

This is basically a bean dip, we make for putting over Tortilla chips and cheese and calling it Nachos for dinner. I have also made it in a bowl and taken it for potlucks with a great deal of success.

Ingredients

1 lbs Hamburger meat
1 Sweet Onion
4-6 cloves of Garlic
2 cans refried beans
1 jar of your favorite Salsa (mild to Hot based on your taste)
1 package of Taco seasoning
1/2 cup green onion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese


Process
1) Using a large frying pan, saute at medium high heat the hamburger, and onion, until the onions are translucent and the hamburger is browned through.

2) Sprinkle in the garlic over the sauteed hamburger

3) Add the refried beans, salsa and taco seasoning (as much or as little as you like, I use about half the packet) to the pan.

4) Simmer on low for about 20-30 minutes

5) Add 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, green onions and cilantro to the pan.

If making for nachos simply heat a bowl of Tortilla chips sprinkled with cheese in a bowl. Then pour the nacho dip of the chips.

For the potluck dip pour into a bowl and sprinkle on remaining 1/2 cup of cheese. Serve hot.
