Super Bowl Time!!!!

With the Super Bowl in 2 weeks and the GIANTS (YAY) playing in it...... I'm sure we will be invited to a bunch of parties (or have one of our own) since most of our friends and family are GIANTS fans. .....My little family of 4, we are not fans of the "the G-MEN",  we are JETS fans (and I'm a Mark Sanchez fan --swoon)... but I still root for the "home team", when it comes to post season football.   Even more-so when they play the Patriots!   So I'll be posting a lot of my family's favorite football foods (say that 3 times fast...family's favorite football foods) over the next few days!  We are a family who loves dips and appys and I don't know too many people who don't love finger (lickin' good)  foods.... 

Let's start with a dip.......sha'll we??

This is a favorite of mine and it's something that I have been making for years and years....I think the first time I brought it to a party I was actually in High School......sooooo it's OLD!   But it's something that never disappoints..well except this one time when I brought it to a party and some drunk friends decided to put it in the oven and cook it........people still ate it, but boy was it a disappointment!  PLEASE...DO NOT HEAT THIS DIP....TRUST ME!

The nice thing about this dip is that you can make it however you want.....and add or subtract ingredients....or add extra or less of others.....Just make it to your liking.  There really isn't measurements to it!



7 Layer Taco Dip

Can of refried beans
Container of Guacamole (or make your own, which I often do)
Container of Sour Cream
Package of taco seasoning
Tomatoes -- seeds removed and chopped
Olives -- sliced
Shredded Mexican blend cheese
Scallions
Tortilla chips (I like the bite sized ones....they are perfectly sized for dipping and enjoying!)

1.  Spread refried beans over a large circle serving platter.  I try to use one with a small lip.
2.  Spread guacamole on top of beans.
3.  Mix sour cream and taco seasoning in bowl and then spread over guacamole.
4.  Layer chopped tomatoes on top of the sour cream mixture.
5.  Spread sliced olives all around.
6.  Sprinkle cheese on top of the tomatoes and olives.
7.  Sprinkle chopped scallions over the entire dip.
8.  DO NOT COOK  :)
9.  Serve with chips
10.  ENJOY!!!!


Sorry for the picture quality (I warned you)....this was taken on my phone, as we were running out the door to a party!  Promise to eventually get a new one up of this yumminess!  :)
