Use white beans in place of the chicken in this recipe for buffalo dip without chicken – it’s great!

Great combination of ingredients. Love the addition of corn and diced red bell pepper. I added no jalapeno seeds, just the flesh. Next time I’ll try a few, and then a few more, until I find the right heat for us.

I really enjoyed this. It’s even better with beans.

Amazing!! I was afraid the jalapenos would be too much so I substituted a poblano pepper. So so good and even better the next day and the day after.

I did not have the cilantro on hand and did without. I also had yellow onion instead of red. The fresh lime juice makes a huge difference. I will try it again with all the ingredients and some tomatoes from my garden.

Excellent and easy. It was a big hit at the party. Ironically, the store must have had a run on jalapeños as they were out. I substituted 1 fresco instead (they are a little hotter). Definite, must make again.

Yummy!!! I made this with cilantro lime rice, also from this site, and used it in burritoes. It is also a great with tortilla chips. I don’t like green peppers, so I used a sweet orange pepper. Also, I didn’t have any jalepeno on hand, so I substituted a pablano pepper. Very tasty. When I open a can of chipotle in adobo, I blend it and keep in in the fridge or freeze in small amounts. I suggest adding a little at a time to reach your desired heat level. Next I will try this on fish tacos!

Made this for a super bowl party. It definately has a lot of heat and for the less adventurous you can try one jalapeno OR omit the cayenne pepper. Great with Carne Asada.
