Ingredients
Optional toppings:
Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an oven safe skillet with cooking spray. I used a 10inch cast iron skillet. Set aside 1/2 cup of rinsed and drained black beans.
- Step 2
In a food processor or blender, combine the black beans (minus that 1/2 cup that we put aside*), cottage cheese, sour cream, garlic, cumin, chili powder, and lime juice. Blend until creamy and very few lumps of the black beans remain. Fold in the remaining black beans.
- Step 3
Pour the black beans mixture into the prepared skillet and top evenly with the pepper jack and cheddar cheese. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted. As desired, you can turn the broiled on during the last couple of minutes but be sure to watch it closely!
- Step 4
Once out of the oven, top with desired toppings and ENJOY with tortilla chips!
Notes
- Step 5
*I really like having some whole black beans in my dip BUT you could skip this step and simply add them ALL into the food processor.
