Healthy Taco Dip
It's Football Season!!!
The most wonderful time of the year! hehe--I LOVE football; all of my younger brother's played growing up so Saturday's were always spent at the field rooting them on; and Sunday's were made for lounging on the couch, having some tasty snacks and watching our favorite NFL Team's duke it out.
Times have clearly changed a bit---all my brothers are now graduated and one is left in college--he plays D3 football for his school but its about 4 hours away--and with my little's we never get there! But Sunday's are STILL church and football days in my house! I've even turned my hubby into an addict (well maybe! :) )
Anyhow I like to make one 'treat' for Sunday afternoon snacking and this is one of my favorites, I currently have it sitting in the fridge all ready to go for this afternoon!
Healthy Taco Dip or 7 Layer Taco Dip--whatever you want to call it!
