  1. Devoured! We used queso cheese and whole kernel corn. This took 40 minutes in the oven. We'll add some chopped tomatoes next time and think it would be awesome with Frito Lays corn chips scoops! Thanks for a great recipe. :)
     
  2. This is a great dip! I used 3 T taco seasoning and 3 T chopped jalapeno and it had the perfect spice for us. Cooked for 12 minutes and served with Fritos scoops - loved it - thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for Fall PAC 2009
     
  3. A really nice sweet and spicy dip! It was simple to prepare and tasted great. Thanks for sharing!
     
  4. My husband says this one is "over the moon" Thanks so much for a great dip! Sadly, I did not try it because me and jalapeno's do not get along.
     
  5. Nothing complicated here. Easy to make. Flavors practically everyone loves. It was the hit of my pre-Thanksgiving dinner snack spread. I had to give away my hardcopy of the recipe.
