BLACK BEAN AND GOAT CHEESE DIP (SLOW COOKER)
From the blog "A Year of Slow Cooking". This recipe is for the mini Little Dipper slow cooker. It can be doubled for a slightly larger slow cooker, or do what I did, using a heat-safe bowl and a larger slow cooker. I'm guessing on servings - I ate most of this instead of dinner.

Steps:
- Mix all of the ingredients except the cheese in a Little Dipper (If you don't have one, mix in a small heat proof bowl). (Note - this was very spicy, so reduce the cayenne if you don't want it that hot).
- Top with the cheese and heat for 1 to 2 hours. (If you don't have a Little Dipper, place a rack in your slow cooker - I use canning jar rings - and pour about 1/2 in of hot water into the slow cooker, Place paper towels under the lid and heat for around 1 1/2 hours on High).
- Serve with tortilla chips.
BLACK BEAN-GOAT CHEESE DIP
Steps:
- 1. Cook olive oil, onion and garlic in large saucepan, over medium, about 5 minutes. Add cumin,cook 30 seconds. Add 1 can beans and lightly mash with potato masher. Stir in chicken stock and remaining can of beans. Simmer until very thick (but not pasty), 5-7 min. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool. 2. Place poblano peppers directly on a burner over a medium-low gas flame. Turn regularly with tongs to blacken skin, 10-15 min (can blacken peppers on a sheet pan under a broiler, turning regularly, about 15 min). Place peppers in a paper bag; seal and let sit (and steam) until cool enough to handle. Peel peppers, removing as much of the charred skin as possible without rinsing. Seed and coarsely chop. Transfer to small bowl, toss with scallions and cilantro. 3.Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In the bottom of a 1- to 1 1/2-quart soufflé or baking dish, spread 1/2 bean mixture. Top with 1//2 cheese, crumbled, and 1/2 pepper mixture. Repeat layering, ending on pepper mixture. Place dish on a sheet pan and bake 30-35 minutes, until top is bubbling. Serve hot with tortilla chips on the side.
