Crockpot Bean Dip

I had some overcooked Aduki beans that I made from dried ones. Not so much burned, just a bit smooshy. Since I refuse to waste food, it was re-packaged as Bean Dip.

I put all these into the food processor:

- 3 cups overcooked Aduki beans
- 1/2 carton of veggie broth
- 1/2 bag frozen corn
- 1/2 bag mixed peppers
- Salt to taste

Then I plopped it into the crockpot and added 2 cups of black beans, not blended up. Truthfully, I'd do that with the corn too...just leave it unpureed...but Jack is suspicious of corn chunks so I try to puree anything I can. ;) He doesn't mind the taste, apparently, since he ate THREE bowls of the bean dip with tortilla chips.

The bean dip, quickie-guacamole (smooshed avocado with salt), and tortilla chips were our dinner at the end of a super busy day. Nice to have it in the crockpot waiting for me when I got home. :)
