      <title>Cheesey Bean Dip</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I've tried a number of different bean dip recipes, but just haven't quite found the perfect dish. This is a version that I recently created - heavy on the cheese and slightly spicy. Takes about 15 minutes to make.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1 small yellow onion, diced&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1 tsp. raw minced garlic&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2 Tbls. butter&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2 cups (15 oz) cooked black or pinto beans, mashed&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1 cup mild cheese (Monterey Jack)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1/2 tsp. chili powder&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1/2 tsp. salt&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dice onion and garlic. Mash cooked beans with a potato masher. In a heavy-bottomed pan, saute garlic and onion in butter until tender. Add beans and cook over low heat until warm. Add cheese and spices. Heat thoroughly. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Serve warm with tortilla chips. Makes 2 cups.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
