By substituting reduced-fat for regular cheese and using a cup less of it. They also substituted reduce-fat sour cream and cream cheese plus fat-free refried beans. To make up for less fat(which adds moisture), they stirred in a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies.
Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded reduced-fat mexican cheese blend
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1 can (16 ounces) fat-free refried beans
1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes and green chilies
1 package (8 ounces) reduced-fat cream cheese, cubed
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
tortilla chips and assorted fresh vegetables
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine cheeses; set aside 1 cup for topping. Add the beans, tomatoes, cream cheese, sour cream and taco seasoning to the remaining cheese. Transfer to a 2-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray; sprinkle with reserved cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly around the edges. Serve warm with tortilla chips and vegetables. Yield: 4 cups.
