Chipotle Raspberry Black Bean Dip
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.

Monday has come and gone. Hooray! I don’t know about you guys, but Mondays are usually pretty crazy for me. I work at a bank, and especially after a holiday weekend, we are slammed. On a better note, I am so excited because this girl is coming to OKC today!
Taylor is one of my best girlfriends from high school. She is a real go getter and has had some major career accomplishments. Long story short, she started in Denver at her company’s headquarters. Since then she was transferred to Wichita, Oklahoma City, and now Houston to work as a district wholesale rep.
Taylor’s Houston transfer was super recent and I was happy/sad for her (happy that she got a promotion and sad because she was moving away). She did manage to hold on to her OKC partners, so I still get to see her twice a month! I guess I can’t complain. It’s going to be a great Tuesday.
Now that I am on my third day blogging, I figured that I better start posting about my blog’s focus, so on to my dip spin (not spinach dip).
There was one dip from Manhattan, KS that stood out above all the rest, So Long Saloon Raspberry Black Bean Dip! I loved it so much that I recreated it for my wedding.

Sally! I came home from work today and Blake said he was going to make some raspberry bean dip. I was very excited because it’s one of my favs. I glance over at the recipe he looked up and I see a picture of Taylor. To my surprise the recipe he picked happened to be from your blog. Thanks! We miss the food from So Long, so I’m glad you helped us recreate it.
I miss So Long too. I’m so glad Blake found the recipe!

You and Chris have a great holiday!
I’m so glad I found this! I was spending my lunch hour on pinterest and someone had posted this. I think about that dip at So Long Saloon all the time and can’t wait to try this version!
It’s true. That dip is unforgettable! Thanks for checking it out.
I found this on Pinterest and just wanted to tell you how excited I am that you figured this out and shared it!!
I lived in Manhattan for 3 years and just moved away in May. We have missed the Manhattan food so much, including So Long Saloon’s dip!!
Can’t wait to try it out! My husband will be thrilled
Manhattan is such an awesome town. We miss it too, especially So Long. Hope you like this version:)
I just found this on pinterest and i’m thrilled it took me to an actual recipe!! I LOVE this dip from So Long’s and my husband and I just moved in february. Las time a pinned what I thought was the recipe it just took me to another picture of it. Lame. But so glad this one worked!
Thanks again!

I’m so glad you found a recipe to use! I adore So Long, especially this dip.
I love this dip as well. I’m excited to find your post but wante to correct one small thing with our recipe. I used to work at So Long for 5 years and I know they add a pinch of garlic in with the onion and cheese. Glad you shared the knowledge of So Long. If you didn’t know this past year the owners opened another restuarnt behind So Long! Taco Lucha is just as amazing and unique as So Long. Hope you get a chance to try it.
P.S. Taco Lucha sell the famous black bean dip so you won’t miss out.
I bet the garlic would make it even better! Thanks for the tip! I can’t wait to try Taco Lucha next time I am in town.
I stumbled across your recipe and noticed the picture of Taylor. I played softball with her at Barton County. Small world!!
How funny! Yeah, we went to high school together and now both live in OKC. Such a small world.
