Warm Skillet Bean Dip

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Warm Skillet Bean Dip is the perfect quick and easy appetizer for a crowd.

This Warm Skillet Bean Dip appetizer is always a hit at parties and goes a long way feeding a large group.  Not only is it delicious and filling, but it's also inexpensive to make; many times you'll have most of the ingredients already on hand.

Tips for the Best Warm Skillet Bean Dip:

  1. Use block cheese and grate it yourself.  You'll be really glad you did. When you want gooey cheese, avoid the pre-shredded package variety because it has additives that prevents it from clumping.  While that's good for shelf-life, it's not good for melting, because it causes the melted cheese to harden and form a crust.
  2. Make sure to soften the cream cheese, otherwise it will be difficult to blend with the other ingredients without forming lumps.
  3. Use a really good salsa! Our favorite is my Taqueria Restaurant Style Salsa!
