DORITOS LATE NIGHT Bites
The smoky flavor of chipotle peppers meets the savory goodness of ground beef and black beans in this hearty dip. The jalapeños and paprika give this cheesy concoction just the right, um, bite, to satisfy anyone, as long as they prefer solid food to, shall we say, an exclusively liquid diet. While we usually encourage experimentation, don’t get fancy by adding anything silly like garlic, or you may repel some of your most desired guests.
Ingredients:
1 – 11 1/2 ounce bag of DORITOS® brand LATE NIGHT® TACOS AT MIDNIGHT Flavored Tortilla Chips
1 jar of TOSTITOS® brand Medium Salsa Con Queso
1/2 cup chopped canned black beans
1/2 cup cooked ground beef
5 tablespoon chopped chipotles in adobo
3 tablespoon chopped jarred jalapeños
2 tablespoon chopped cilantro
2 teaspoon paprika
Hot sauce, for garnish
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Instructions:
Recommended Utensils: Medium mixing bowl, medium sauce pan, 1-quart ceramic serving bowl, large serving platter

Once the mixture is heated through remove it from the pan and place it in a ceramic serving bowl. Place bowl on serving platter, and surround bowl with chips. Garnish dip with a spicy hot sauce heart and a couple of sprigs of cilantro and serve immediately.
