Cheesy Taco Dip

Have you been watching football? Will you have a Superbowl Party? Well, we will be certainly having a Superbowl Party at our house but I can’t say I will be watching much of the game. I am really not the one in this house that follows football. That would be Andy. But I am all about the food.

Have you watched the movie Silver Linings Playbook?   I love how the mom’s character calls her football snacks “homemades.” Food is such a big part of watching football and I plan to deliver with some “homemades” that are sure to score a touch down.

This cheesy taco dip is the perfect football snack. It is also quick and easy and most importantly, CHEESY! It has not one, not two, not three, but FOUR cheeses. The other two ingredients are salsa and taco seasoning. I happen to make my own taco seasoning but you can certainly use some from a packet. I have included the ingredients for the taco seasoning in the recipe.

Add this dip to your list of “homemades” for the big game and everyone wins!
