INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2mild onion , chopped fine
  • 5 pieces of lean turkey bacon (cut small)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Saute the onion for a few minutes. Then add the chopped bacon and cook for a few more minutes.Add the garlic and saute for a few more minutes.
  2. Add the beans to a large bowl and mash them with the vinegar.This supposedly degases the beans.I found it did work.
  3. Once the beans are mashed add back some of the liquid from the beans. Try adding a little at a time until you get a niceconsistency.Don’t over mash the beans.
  4. Add in the cooked bacon/onion/garlic mixture and mix it up well.
  5. In the bottom of a microwave safe dish layer some tortilla chips on the bottom and pour some of the bean/onion/bacon dip over the chips.Then shred some of the cheese on top.
  6. Repeat the layers and top with cheese.You can also add a little salsa between the layers if you like.
  7. Place in the microwave and place a loose fitting cover over top but not touching the food.
  8. Set to reheat.When the dish is heated through it’s ready.
  9. Bon Appetite!
