    I loved this recipe! I havn't cooked Pinto Beans in 20 years! I didn't know my husband would like them. I took the advice of some of the other cooks and spiced it up a bit with extra garlic, greek seasoning, cummin, chilli powder. It was spicy but I'll tweek it more the next time. - 11/1/09

    I thought this was delicious served plain on a warm flour tortilla. I added a little garlic. I am taking the dip and recipe to my school's "Spark" meeting tomorrow. - 2/3/09

    I thought this was good. Very very very easy to make, which was a plus. I thought it was a little bland though. After reading the last comment I added pepper flakes, garlic powder, cumin, and salt, and still found it to be somewhat bland.
    Husband liked it though!!

    Based on other reviews saying it was bland, I made mine with medium salsa and I added garlic and a light sprinkling of taco seasoning. It was zesty and good. - 12/4/09
