Easy Slow-Cooker Bean Dip Recipe
The Most Unexpected Dip You Can Make in Your Slow Cooker
Party-pleasing, hassle-free, and so tasty your eyes roll back: that's how every queso dip should be. While shopping at Trader Joe's, I came across a new product: canned refried beans. The average person might have passed by those beans, but not me. I instantly thought they needed to go in a slow-cooked queso-bean dip and started assembling the other ingredients. I went with a base of fire-roasted tomatoes, green chiles, shredded Mexican cheese, and cream cheese (although if you have access to Velveeta, feel free to swap it out with that). The flavors melt together and form a fluffy, perfectly seasoned queso dip that will leave you — and your lucky guests — feeling happily full.
