Movie Night



























Ingredients
1 bag corn chips

Guacamole:
1 avocado
1/2 lime
1/2 cup tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup corn
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp fresh ground pepper



Bean Dip:
1 can refried beans
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
1/2 cup salsa
1/2 pkg Teese vegan nacho cheese
1 can sliced black olives
1/2 lime
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Mix refried beans and chipotle peppers together and spread in 8X8 baking dish
3. Layer with salsa, cheese, black olives, and cilantro; bake 20 mins and squeeze lime over before serving
4. Meanwhile, make guacamole by mashing avocado and stirring in remaining ingredients

This was my Sunday night dinner while watching a movie. I felt like I was eating junk food, but I actually had my protein from the beans and a variety of veggies. The only bad thing really was the chips, but you could make a healthier pita chip if you wanted. I wouldn't eat like this every night, but it's fun every once and awhile. This was my first time using the Teese nacho cheese and I was satisfied with it. I have been experimenting with vegan cheeses lately, even though I am not vegan, because that way I can have my cheesy flavor without all the bad stuff like cholesterol and high fat. I am pretty proud of my guacamole recipe. I have perfected it over the last few years and it is a regular menu item for girls night. I never seem to make enough because it is gone in no time:)
