This is a neat idea for a *food gift* to share with friends. Make the

mix and put it in a quart jar with a calico and raffia lid. Attach a

card with the preparation instructions.

 

To make mix:

 

1 1/2 cups pinto or black bean flour (purchase at a health food store

or make your own by grinding beans in your grain grinder)

1 1/2 tsp. chili powder

1/8 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. cumin

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. instant minced onions

Mix and store.

 

To prepare dip:

 

Whisk 3/4 cup of mixture into 2 1/2 cups of boiling water. Cook over

medium heat for one minute until thickens. Reduce heat to low, cover

pan, and cook 4 minutes more. Serve as refried beans or add salsa to

make a dip consistency. Enjoy!
