Mole Olé Graveyard Layered Bean Dip

20 min

While we love a good 7-layer dip, this one has just 4 layers and it's perfect. The big flavor comes from Mole Olé! The presentation makes it perfect for Halloween parties. The famous mole sauces of central Mexico are delightfully complex, and ours is jam packed with 17 ingredients! From the bright chile flavors of Guajillo and Ancho to the warm depths of Allspice and True Cinnamon, there's nothing this blend can't do. Mix the Mole Olé with some smashed black beans for the bottom layer and sprinkle it on top of the cream for added flavor and a little "dirt". I made my headstones by cutting shapes out tortillas and heating them in a pan to give the final dish a distinct Halloween vibe, but chips out of the bag work too! There's almost no wrong way to make this layered dip, and there's definitely no wrong way to eat it.

Aromatic garlic and bay leaf join forces, while citric acid and white pepper harmonize for balance. Pair with crusty bread, rice, or pasta or keep it as is for a gluten-free stew. A satisfying dish that gets even better as leftovers—easy, hearty, and oh-so-delicious.

Black-Eyed Pea, Kale and Calico Salad

10 min

This Southern classic got a Pacific Northwest with with Calico Fish Rub in the dressing. The Calico Fish Rub's ingredients just make sense.... It’s spicy from the Korean chile flakes and citrusy and fresh from the dill weed and sumac. Once combined with the good mustard and brown sugar, the dressing is balanced and full of flavor that will infuse into the kale and black-eyed peas.

Pasilla Oaxaca Black Bean Dip

We know it's wrong to have a favorite child, but Pasilla Oaxaca reigns as our favorite chile. Don't tell the others. They are great in their own ways, but Pasilla Oaxaca has it all. Piquant and smoky, without being too much of either, these chiles can be used in soups and stews, sauces and more. If you've never used them, this dip is a fantastic introduction. Pasilla Oaxaca chiles are dried smoked chilaca peppers. They have more heat than their ancho pepper siblings, but less than chipotle, they are smoky and have a great depth of flavor. Just pop one of these in while the beans are cooking, then blend it all up for this creamy dip. Tasty hot or cold, this dip is delicious.
