Who doesn’t love a good home-made dip recipe! This mexican inspired one is sure to be a real hit at your next party.

Makes 12 servings as an appetizer

Ingredients

1 x 435g can refried beans (Old El Paso®)
1 x 300ml jar hot salsa (Masterfoods®)
1 tablespoon salt-reduced taco seasoning (Old El Paso®)
½ cup (125g) avocado mashed
1 x 200g tub low-fat natural yoghurt
¼ cup 25% reduced-fat grated tasty cheese
½ cup tomato diced
2 shallots sliced
¼ cup capsicum diced

Method

In a medium size mixing bowl combine refried beans and jar of salsa together. Spread over the base of a pie dish. Mix the taco seasoning with avocado and gently spread over top of bean mix. Spread yoghurt over avocado then sprinkle cheese, tomato, shallots and capsicum over top of yoghurt. Refrigerate until required. Serve with rice crackers or my corn chips (from book 1 on page 15).

Variation: Replace yoghurt with half serve of ‘Symply Sour Cream’ Book 3 page 18. Add 0.5 grams of fat per serve.

Dietitian’s Tip: Kidney beans are low in fat, high in fibre and have a low GI.

I make q recipe similar to this but I love that you used the low fat yoghurt instead of sour cream! A much healthy choice! Will have to give this a try. Thanks for sharing.

This looks like a great Mexican recipe – hot and spicy. It is also good for you as it has beans, low fat and low salt products.

Along with a couple of other recipes I’ve found on MoM’s, I’m going to make this on the weekend, as we’ve got friends coming over for a “Watch the Football” get-together. I’m going to serve this with toasted pita bread sprinkled with a little garlic salt.
