Southwestern Spinach-Black Bean Dip image

I was craving Southwestern Egg rolls from Chili's and since I've been cutting back on the carbs, I came up with this recipe that can be used as a dip with tortilla chips, quesadilla filling or as a side dish.

I've made this dip several times and it's always a hit. However, I find that it's best to make it a day ahead of time so that the flavors have a chance to meld.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dip turned out too watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found this dip to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to taste.

This dip is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chipotle peppers if you don't like spicy food.
