(WEB EXCLUSIVE) ROUND 2 RECIPE: BEAN CHILI QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Place 1 tortilla onto a clean work surface. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Top with 1/2 cup of the bean chili and sprinkle with 2 more tablespoons of the cheese. Put another flour tortilla on top and carefully place in the skillet. Cook for 3 minutes until tortilla is slightly browned and cheese starts to melt. Flip and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Transfer quesadillas to a cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve with sour cream or salsa.
• In a large saucepan over low heat stir together the barbeque sauce, beans, chili seasoning, brown sugar, and mustard. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, set up grill or indoor grill pan for direct cooking over medium heat. When ready to start cooking oil the grate. Place hot dogs on the hot, oiled grill. Cook for 10 minutes or until heated through, turning occasionally. Toast buns on grill, if desired. Place hot dogs in buns and top with chili. Serve hot with chopped white onions.

LAYERED BEAN DIP

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix refried beans and taco seasoning, then spoon into a 13x9 baking dish.
• In the now empty bowl, mix softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Stir in the can of green chilis. If you like it spicier, you can also had a few drops of hot sauce at this point and stir well. Pour sour cream mixture on top of beans in baking dish and spread evenly.
• Sprinkle the two shredded cheeses evenly over the top of dish. At this point, you can bake the dip at 350 for about 20 minutes or until bubbly. Serve the toppings in small dishes on the side. Personally, our family likes it cold, and it's easier to serve cold for parties.
• If serving cold, top with layers of remaining toppings, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, Allowing it to chill for at least 30 minutes will help to meld the flavors.
• Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips or even sliced vegetables for dipping.
• TIP: I slice the toppings like tomatoes and olives on a layer of paper towels so that the juices get soaked up, and then transfer the toppings to the dish after they have had a chance to drain. This helps to prevent the dip from getting "wet" while refrigerated.
