Ingredients
  

  • 3 cans 15 oz each black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 8 oz cream cheese cubed
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 2-3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce minced
  • 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from the can
  • 1 small onion finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh cilantro sliced jalapeños, and diced tomatoes for topping

Method
 

  1. Spray slow cooker with nonstick spray.
  2. Add beans, cream cheese, sour cream, 1 cup Monterey Jack, salsa, chipotles, adobo, onion, garlic, cumin, and paprika.
  3. Stir thoroughly; cream cheese need not fully mix yet.
  4. Cover; cook on low 3 hours, stirring hourly for even melting and to prevent sticking.
  5. About 30 minutes before serving, partly mash beans with masher or fork for chunky-smooth texture. Add remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
  6. Taste; adjust salt and heat if needed. Top with cilantro, jalapeños, and tomatoes; serve warm with tortilla chips, pita chips, or crisp vegetables.
