Today is Halloween and Rania Harris stopped by PTL to whip up some spooky recipes!
Graveyard Taco Dip
1st Layer:
2 cans re-fried black beans
2nd Layer:
4 cups sour cream
2 packages taco seasoning
3rd Layer:
2 cups guacamole
4th Layer:
2 cups salsa
5th Layer:
2 bunches of green onions, chopped
- Townhouse oval shaped butter crackers
- Edible markers
Directions:
In a 9" x 13" rectangle glass casserole, layer beans, then sour cream mixed with taco seasoning, then the guacamole, then the salsa and finally, finish with chopped green onions to cover the top.
Place tombstone-shaped crackers into the dip standing up to simulate the look of tombstones. You can decorate the tombstones with edible marker to say "RIP" if desired. (Edible markers available at "Michael's" or craft stores, or on Amazon.)
Serves: 4 to 6
Ghosts in the Graveyard
