Texas Trash Dip
I don’t know about you guys, but I love football season. And let’s be honest. It’s not because of the football game! To me, football season is all about getting together with friends and eating delicious food! I mean, isn’t it all about the food and dips? Ok, maybe not to everyone, but still… The food is a big part of it, and this Texas trash dip is no exception! Dip it with your favorite tortilla chips, and you will not move from the couch until every last bite is scraped from that bowl!
I have no idea why this dip has the word trash in it! That word couldn’t put it farther from the truth because it’s basically a mixture that comes straight from heaven. It’s quick and easy to make and once you top it with that cheese that is all melted, well… Let’s just say that I will be shocked if you aren’t hooked after making one batch. We usually double or triple the recipe because it gets eaten SO fast.

I gave it 4 stars just because I have not tried it yet. I will defiantly be trying it very soon. I do have a question, cause I’m a little confused. Someone asked about draining the corn & black beans? I didn’t see those items in this recipe. Are they referring to a different recipe? Just confused. Thanks for any help you can give me. Have a wonderful and blessed day.

Note: I have not tried this. The slowcooker instructions originally come from this recipe: http://www.flavour.ca/Club-House/Recipes/Entertaining/Texas-Trash-Dip?utm_source=Facebook&utm_campaign=EverydayContent17&utm_medium=Social&utm_term=Flavour&utm_content=TexasDipENG —But they make sense and I imagine that once you have the dip to the optimum temp, you could add the toppings from this recipe. Good luck!
I could probably eat this entire dish for every meal! DELICIOUS!
