It's Fiesta Time - Taco Dip

So my beloved Oklahoma SOONERS made it to the Fiesta Bowl yesterday!! BOOMER!! My Mother-n-Law was hosting the party and wanted all snacks to be 'Mexican', so I decided to make my husband's favorite dip -  TACO DIP...it's easy and YUMMO!!  I think I got this recipe from someone at Tupperware when I was selling it, back in the day...you will need the following:
8oz cream cheese softened
green onions
4 oz chopped green chiles
16 oz can of chili, no beans
1 1/2 C shredded cheese

I used a Tupperware large shallow Rock-n-Serve container to make this...just use something that can go in the microwave.  Spread the cream cheese evenly over the bottom of the container.


Add the chopped green onions...if you don't like onions, leave them out :-) 

Add the whole can of chiles. 

Add your can of chili...my husband made his Boomer Sooner Chili a couple weeks ago and we froze some of it, so I used his instead of canned chili. 

Add your cheese...any kind, whatever you like.  I really like cheese, so I think there's probably over 2 C. on this one!  

Put the lid on and microwave on 70% for 3-5 minutes, until hot and bubbly!!! 

See all the layers of goodness!

Enjoy on tortilla chips! 

I didn't not receive anything from Tupperware for this post, although I sure wouldn't mind if I did!!  I used to sell it and I have tons of it and still love to use it.

Cost of supplies - $2
(I only needed to buy green onions and green chiles...I had the rest)

Christmas Traditions - Sausage Balls

A Christmas tradition in our house is Sausage Balls for breakfast for Christmas Eve and Christmas morning.  They are easy, peasy and YUMMY!  And great warmed up the next day!!
Here's what you will need:
1 lb. sausage - any kind you like - I mix original with hot
1 lb. (4 cups) cheese - again whatever you like
2 cups Bisquick - I picked the Heart Smart this year (yeah, I know -whateves!!)
I did 2 batches at a time...any more and it will be a you-know-what to combine ingredients.

The hardest part of this is getting the ingredients to combine...I start with the cheese and Bisquick. 

Then I add the sausage... 

 You gotta get your hands dirty for this one..it's really the only way to get the sausage incorporated.  Keep 'pinching' the sausage to break it apart...keep doing this until the pieces are small, small, small!!!

Here's are fur baby - 2E...my husband had the camera, taking pics for me and that's his baby girl!  She was hoping that I would drop something for her! 

After you get everything broken down, make balls.  And more balls, and more balls!  Line them in a pan and put in a 350 degree oven for 15 - 20 minutes...they should be golden on the top. 

 ENJOY! 
Don't 'cha love the fine china!  My hubby was being nice, so I didn't have to do any more dishes!!
