cheese filled and low calorie appetizers we 
have been stalking on Pinterest!

Yes Mama Nuch is right!
So I am going to make it real easy for you.
These three treats will be the hit of the party 
I kid you not!
Just pick up some really great chips and
do not forget the Big Scoop FRITOS!
Put on a fancy pair of sweats so you can

Tex Mex 7 Layer Dip


If you have ever lived or visited Texas 
then you have tasted this all time favorite dip.
It is kind of a staple at Texas parties.
It is pretty basic but you can add your 
own personality to it. 
If you are a little spicy, you can fire up the heat.
If you are perky you can throw in a new layer 
to wake up your guests. I usually adapt it to what
 I have in the frig at the time needed. 
I usually make it in the morning on the day I need it.
If you use fresh avocados then you will want to make it 
the day needed because the fresh avocado 
will turn brown if it is made too far in advance.
If you use store bought avocado dip 
you can make it the day before.

Tex Mex 7 Layer Dip

Ingredients
1 can of refried beans (I use nonfat and organic)
1 16 oz Sour Cream
2 Cups of Shredded Colby and Monterey Jack Cheese
4 diced green onions
1 medium tomato diced
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro
1/2 stick of butter
1/4 tsp season salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbl of cumin
1 Tbl of chili powder
1 Tbl of Tabasco Sauce
1/2 tsp onion powder
3 or 4 medium avocados mashed with a Tbl of fresh lime and a dash of sea salt
OR  1 16 oz container of store bought guacamole dip

Soften refried beans with butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. 
Add 1/4 tsp season salt and 1/4 tsp garlic salt into beans. Once softened pour in the dish you will serve the dip in. Allow it to cool about 15 minutes until adding the next layer. In a medium bowl mix sour cram with cumin, chili powder, onion powder and Tabasco. This is where you can add more sauce or seasoning if you like. Just taste it with your cute little pinky finger and tweak it as you wish. When you are done tweaking the sour cream just dump and spread it evenly over the beans. Next up is the guacaMOLE! 
I like saying that....guacaMOLE!  Can you hear me? So here is the deal. 
You can cheat and use a store bought guac fake dip or make your own with a few avocados. It is up to you and how much time you want to invest in this dip. I have done both. So make the decision, own it and then spread it over the sour cream concoction. Next up the cheese. Spread the cheese on top of guac and then sprinkle the onions, toms and cilantro. Cover it up with plastic wrap and chill for a couple of hours or more. Serve it up with some good tortilla chips and of course some Big Scoop Fritos! 
Fritos are a must! If you really want to be daring add some freshly diced jalapeƱos on the top. If you do that then run and hide from your guest who can't take the heat. They will not be happy and surely will be looking for you! 

AND......You are going to want to make some QUESO!
So go HERE for the BEST (Mama doesn't lie) Queso recipe you will ever find!


AND.......You are going to want to make this amazing main course to dump all the dips on top of!    King Ranch Casserole is to die for!

HOLLI HOT SAUCE

In Texas we call the yummy dip
served with tortilla chips in all
Mexican restaurants
HOT SAUCE!
In Colorado it is called
SALSA!
This Mama LOVES
HOT SAUCE!
Usually I make my own as I
am pretty picky about my
HOT SAUCE!
Starting at a very young age,
5 years old to be exact,
my mom would pack
HOT SAUCE
in my metal
Scooby Doo
 lunchbox!
I remember very vividly
sitting at the cafeteria table
dipping my Fritos into my
HOT SAUCE!
  Of course every single child at my
table wanted a taste!
One can only imagine the
GERMS
we
shared!
YUM!
News spread fast!
I became very popular!
I'm sure I felt pretty good about
my new fame and notoriety
as I marched through
the halls of
Hobby Elementary
with my crooked bangs
and
knobby knees!
I can just hear the chatter in the hall!
"Hey Holli! Did you bring your
hot sauce today?"
"You betcha!" was Holli's perky reply.
Then a loud cheer and a sudden
commotion as children argue
about who gets to sit at
"Holli Hot Sauce's" table today!
WOW!
I owe it all to
HOT SAUCE!

So I am going to bestow upon
you all a very easy
HOT SAUCE
recipe!
I have many
HOT SAUCE
recipes but here is the easiest
one from my recipe box.
Once again you will need this

This is a "cheater" recipe!
So let's name it......
Cheater HOT SAUCE

In a blender put 2 cloves of garlic
1 cup of cilantro and
the juice from 1 can of Rotel.
Blend on high about 20 seconds.
Add the remaining can of Rotel
to the blender and blend another
20 seconds.  Do not blend too long
or it will become foamy!
There you go!
Easy Peasy 
40 Second 
Cheater
Hot Sauce!
This is great on eggs, tacos,
quesadillas, you name it!
Store in the refrigerator for
up to 5 days.

I double dare you 
to put it in
your child's lunchbox!

Chili Con Queso



Mama Colleen makes a mean Texas Queso!
She is the ultimate southern cook and everything 
she serves up is amazing! 
She is one of my favorite buddies and I 
miss those lazy summer days hanging 
out at her pool with the kids!


Chili Con Queso Dip
by Colleen Rice
one 2lb box of velveeta
2 (5oz) cans of evaporated milk
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef, browned and drained
2 (4oz) cans of green chilies chopped
2 (4oz) jars of pimientos 
1 ts. oregano
3-4 pickled jalapeno peppers chopped
1 Tbsp. Knorr Suize Calso de Pollo Spice
2 (15oz) cans Ranch Style beans undrained

In a large crock pot add chopped Velveeta. Pour in evaporated milk and mix.  Heat crock pot on low. While the cheese and milk heat, prepare ground beef in a large skillet by browning and draining. Then add the remaining ingredients to the meat in the skillet. Simmer for 10 minutes and then add to the cheese mixture in the crock pot. Mix well and heat on low.  Serve with your favorite chips.  Colleen serves this at their annual Halloween Party.  It is so very good and fat free of course!
