2 cans refried beans, (16ounce each)
1 package taco seasoning mix, about 1 1/4 oz
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cups Monterey jack cheese, shredded
a few drops Tabasco sauce, to taste
chopped jalapeno or mild chiles, to taste
Place refried beans, taco seasoning, onion, cheese, and Tabasco sauce in the slow cooker/Crock Pot; stir well. Stir in chopped chiles. Cover and cook on low until cheese is melted, about 1 hour; add a little water if mixture seems too thick. Serve from the slow cooker/Crock Pot with French bread, crackers, or chips.
Makes about 4 cups.
