INCREDIBLE AND EASY TACO DIP!
This taco dip is incredibly simple to make - so simple, it doesn't seem right that it can taste so good. We got this recipe from my friend Kathy, who altered a recipe she had found online. Whenever I make this, my DH asks me to make two so he can enjoy it again after the party. It gets gobbled up quickly no matter where we take it! The main key is to make this the day before and let it chill in the fridge overnight - allowing the flavors to meld together. Feel free to get creative with the ingredients!
