A lot of the flavor comes from taco seasoning. Preparing this dip is very easy, refried beans are mixed with taco seasoning, sour cream, and cream cheese and then placed into a baking dish and topped with shredded cheese and baked to perfection. You can top this with delicious taco ingredients if you want such as lettuce, tomato, and black olives. Serve with tortilla chips. Enjoy.

Pizza fries recipe

Pizza fries are a quick and easy appetizer to prepare. This is more of an idea than a recipe and is perfect to serve for your Super Bowl party. Waffle fries are topped with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni and then served with pizza sauce. If you want you can put the sauce right on the fries before the cheese but I like my fries crispy so I used the sauce for dipping. No frying is required just bake the fries in the oven and then top with pizza ingredients. Enjoy.
