If you’re familiar with this blog, you know I am a huge fan of dips. Today, I’m sharing another favorite. Baked refried bean dip is warm, cheesy, and has just the right spices.
Pop this in the oven in time to watch your favorite team and enjoy it with chips. You can even use it as a topping for tostadas to make it a meal.
Game day appetizers are my favorites. Try more ideas, like Buffalo chicken dip, guacamole, and spicy meatballs.
