  • 4 scallions, sliced
  • 1/2 cup prepared salsa
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 cup pickled jalapeño slices, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream

Directions

  2. Transfer the bean mixture to a microwave safe bowl and sprinkle evenly with the Monterey Jack cheese.
