This layered taco dip recipe is an easy addition to a party buffet of international foods, including German specialties.
Made ahead of time so the flavors can develop, it is finished off just before serving. Leftovers are rare, because it is so tasty, but it can be kept in the fridge for a day or two if necessary.
You can alter it by adding your favorite toppings. Bacon and green peppers are our favorite extra toppings.
