Creamy-Beany-Cheesy-Guaca-Salsa
This, my friends, is Creamy-Beany-Cheesy-Guaca-Salsa.
In other words, it’s 7 Layer Dip. But it’s so much more than that. It’s absolutely delicious and it’s actually kind of good for you. Lots of protein, lots of veggies, and not a lot of fat! Wahoo!
And it’s just in time for summer – the season that gives us longer days (and thus more time during the day to eat delicious food?) and hopefully a little more flexibility to spend good ‘ole quality time with folks!
Aaron’s responsible for naming this dip of deliciousness. I’d be a fool not to keep it. It’s almost as fun to eat as it is to say. Creamy-beany-cheesy-guaca-salsa. Creamy-beany-cheesy-guaca-salsa.
On top of being super fun to eat and say, it’s pretty fun to make, too!
The recipe is below, but I wanted to include links to my guacamole and salsa recipes – I would highly recommend using them for this dip!
Alright, c’mon – throw this layer of yumminess together, invite the neighbors over, and have yourself a flavor fest around your kitchen table!
