Black Bean Dip

Serves 6

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and salt, and cook, stirring, until the onion is softened and translucent, 4 to 6 minutes.
2. Add the garlic and chili powder and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
3. Add half of the black beans, the chipotles and adobo sauce, and the water, and bring to a boil. Cook until the liquid reduces by about half, 2 to 3 minutes.
4. Transfer the bean mixture to a food processor, add the vinegar and process until smooth, scraping down the sides of the work bowl as necessary.
5. Allow the mixture to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a large bowl.
6. Add the rest of the beans, the tomatoes, corn, half of each of the cheeses, and 1/2 cup of the cilantro. Mix well and season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
7. Transfer the mixture a baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake until the cheese melts and browns around the edges, about 15 minutes.
8. Sprinkle with the remaining cilantro and serve with tortilla chips.
