Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- Cream Cheese – I used a basic cream cheese brick for this recipe that I softened on the counter. Don’t use a whipped or airy cream cheese for this, regular works just fine.
- Low Sodium Black Beans
- Salsa: You can use any type of salsa you prefer – mild, medium or spicy!
- Chili Powder: for a really nice flavor in this dip – the chili powder isn’t spicy but will give you a rich and bright flavor.
- Cheddar – I used shredded white cheddar.
- Red Chili Pepper Flakes: for a little heat! if you don’t like spice, you can absolutely skip them in this recipe.
- Green Onions for Garnish
