“It’s a healthified version of the popular 7-layer dip that everyone SO SO loves! There are gazillion versions of this dip but I think the traditional one ALWAYS calls for refried beans, taco seasoning, and some type of cheese. I skipped out on all those layers and instead made my own version of refried beans by using black canned beans with chipotle pepper, lime juice, cumin, and cilantro << this here my friends is tasty, clean, and only 5 minutes to make.” - Katya
