Tasted great. It is almost the exact same as the one I grew up with that my mother made. The only change I made was to leave out the mayonaise. Read More

This has been a favorite at parties. Since my boyfriend can't get enough of it, I made a lower fat version using lowfat sour cream and mayonnaise -- not *quite* the same but pretty close. Read More

This recipe has been in our family favorites for as long as I can remember as well. There are just a few differences in our version. Increase Mayonaise to 1/2 cup (we use Best Foods) Add shredded lettuce after the avacado Increase Tomatoes to 3 medium Add a bunch of diced green onions Decrease Cheese to 8 oz. Slice the olives Read More

This was very good. Made it for a few friends and it was received well. Personally I didn't really "love" the mayo with this but others really liked it and asked for the recipe. Thanks for the post. Read More

Wow...this was a great hit and gone in an hour! Upgrades I made were to include 1 (16 oz) jar of Mrs. Renfro's mild salsa in the layering and to add 1 spicy guacamole mix packet to the guacamole to give it some zip (the spice packet can be found in most produce sections). The layering should be refried beans salsa guacamole sour cream/mayo/seasoning mixture etc. The reason for this is the first time I made it and placed the salsa next to the sour cream mixture it made one big mess on the platter and didn't look to appetizing (even though everyone inhaled it). The second time around it look much better on the plate when the salsa was not next to the sour cream mixture. Great easy appetizer for any ball game! Read More
