Spicy Bean and Cheese Dip

This is one of my go to dips. Its really easy to make and tastes better than anything you can buy from the store. When I am entertaining with lots of finger foods and dips, I like to put this dip into one of my small size crock pots to keep it warm. If you like a spicier dip you can leave the seeds in the jalapeno and/or use spicy refried beans.
