Hot Southwest Bean Dip


This is the utlimate hot cheesy bean dip! The first time I made this was probably about 20 years ago. I think my Mom had cut the recipe out of the newspaper, and we made it together for a family game night. I remember it was so fun to try a new recipe together, and I was so proud of how it turned out! I loved it and still do! I made this yummy dip for a little superbowl party we had. With hearty layers of: refried beans, browned sausage, onion, chili peppers, salsa verde, cheese and my favorite part...avocados, you could have this for dinner! Mmmm--fantastic! Hope you enjoy!

  8. Banana Bread last night...this tonight! We loved it! For some reason I have been afraid of making a layered dip like this but it just looked to good to pass. I ended up doing a slight variation since I was working with what was already in the kitchen and substituted seasoned fake beef crumbles for the sausage.
