When Common Sense Died

Posted on 25 October 2009 by Suburban Wife

My husband gets those stupid chainletters that float around the internet. I try to avoid them but he has insisted on sending them to me and me reading them. Most of the time I delete them but this one caught my eye so I thought I’d share.

Frito Lay like Layered Bean Dip Recipe

Posted on 25 October 2009 by Suburban Wife

Frito Lay makes awesome bean dip but my recipe is even better because on top of the beans is more flavorful goodness than just beans. My Frito Lay like beans are creamy, zesty and can be made for vegans and vegetarians alike.

The secret to making bean dip creamy is in the milk. Some have been known to add a little melted lard and that’s okay but milk adds a touch of sweetness and helps the beans stay creamy so chips don’t break during dipping.
