In honor of Cinco de Mayo I am reposting this dip recipe. It is one of my favs and once I start eating it is hard to stop. Simply put together and chill, no baking required.

I apologize that I haven’t been consistently posting recipes lately. I am currently taking four accelerated college classes, so I have been a little busy. My write ups will probably be short and sweet until two of my classes end on November 7.
I am excited to share this yummy Mexican Dip recipe with you! I got this from a good friend when we lived in Meridian, MS. She now lives in Texas, and I am in Italy, but thanks to Facebook we can still keep in touch. I am so thankful for the friends all over the world that the Lord has brought into my life. Each new friend makes my life so much richer, and I am truly grateful!
Buon Appetito!
