Cheesy Spicy Refried Beans
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 1 (16 ounce) can spicy fat-free refried beans
  • 1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), ensuring it reaches the optimal heat level for baking.
2
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, carefully monitoring its temperature as it begins to melt; cook and stir the onion and garlic until the onion becomes translucent, taking approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
3
Next, incorporate and cook refried beans into the onion mixture, stirring constantly until they reach a heated through state, typically within 3 to 5 minutes.
4
Remove the saucepan from heat and blend cream cheese into the bean mixture, creating a smooth consistency.
5
Spread the resulting mixture evenly into a pie plate; top it with Cheddar cheese to create a visually appealing and flavorful dish.
6
Bake the pie in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbling, taking around 20 minutes to achieve the perfect result.
