Emphasis on “the.” My college roommate introduced me to this amazing bean dip and it’s been a favorite of mine ever since—partly because it reminds me of my best friends, but mostly because it’s effing delicious. A bean dip to end all bean dips, I give you the bean dip.
The serving size of this recipe is a shit load (that’s a technical term). You will literally be eating it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a solid week. And you’ll love every second of it. I made it this year for the Super Bowl, and thank the lo’ because it was the only good thing to come out of that disappointment (I’m a Pats fan).

My chipped, half-removed nail polish makes this last picture extra special.
