RECIPE: REC: Layered Taco Dip Revisited...

[dawn_mo]

my stepdaughter brought what looked like a traditional layered taco dip. What was different, she added a minced chipotle in adobo to the salsa. It was so good. Not too hot, and a really delicious flavor. Give it a try, you will not be sorry. I kept complimenting her, and she said, all I did was add one chipotle. It added a little heat, and that wonderful chipotle smoky flavor. A great idea from a great cook.
