Mexican Layered Dip Recipe – quick and easy dip with layers of beans, guacamole, seasoned sour cream, salsa and cheese. Perfect for parties!

Mexican Layered Dip is a must for any party, get-together or especially a game day in our house. Layers of deliciousness packed into one irresistible dip. If I don’t serve my Chili Queso Dip ( the best queso from scratch recipe! ), I make this layered dip. It is always a hit!

This dip is made of layers of my favorite Mexican food ingredients. Refried beans and my guacamole with taco spiced sour cream are already delicious. Add flavor-bursting salsa or pico de gallo and a layer of shredded cheese and this dip will be gone in no time!

Slow Cooker Baked Beans Recipe

Slow Cooker Baked Beans – comfort food classic made easy in the slow cooker with just a few ingredients! Use a leftover ham bone or bacon. This recipe is a family favorite!

I can now officially say that I used every last bit of our Christmas ham. We enjoyed a hefty part of it for our holiday dinner, the leftovers got chopped and mixed in to make this delicious chowder and I even froze some for a breakfast casserole this weekend. The ham bone had a lot of meat on it and I knew I would use it to make something fantastic. What better dish than baked beans! In a slow cooker, because they are the best cooked slow.

If you are looking for a real comfort food to warm up your soul – these baked beans are it!

Pesto Pasta Salad

Pesto Pasta Salad – delicious pasta salad recipe with pesto, bow tie pasta, spinach and lemon. Perfect to pack into a jar for a picnic!

Summer is officially here! The first day coincided with Father’s Day which means double the reason for a great food and celebration!

I am so excited to share this recipe for a pasta salad with you today, as it has been my favorite lunch lately! The flavors are so fresh and delicious – so good on hot summer days. This pasta salad is perfect for summer! It’s easy to make (you can make it ahead of time and keep in the fridge) AND absolutely delicious and full of fresh flavors. It’s a great side for a dinner of the grill (lemon grilled chicken is crazy good with this pasta salad!) and a fabulous lunch idea.

I tend to make a batch of pasta the day before and keep it in the fridge to mix in with the rest of ingredients just before lunch OR prepare the salad and pack it into containers or jars for a grab-and-go lunch!
