INSTRUCTIONS
ANNE STEIRER, 214-243-8123
Dip and chips -- yum! This is a bit thicker than a dip. Easy to make in
quantity for a big party or to pack in small glass containers for gifts.
Must be refrigerated.
Place beans in bowl and partially mash until chunky. Set aside.
Heat oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and
garlic; saute 4 minutes or until tender. Add beans, tomato, and next 3
ingredients; cook 5 minutes, or until thickened, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat; add cheese and remaining ingredients, stirring until
cheese melts. Serve warm or at room temperature, with fat-free corn or
flour tortilla chips or cut-up veggies.
Makes about 2-1/2 cups. Recipe may be multiplied.
When made with reduced-fat cheese: 1 tb = 21 cal, 1.3 gm fat.
Presented by Anne Steirer at a "Healthy Holiday Gifts" seminar on Oct. 24,
1995.
Sylvia's comments: she served this on Baked Tostitos and it was quite good,
not dry-tasting.
