Mexican Bean Dip Anyone?


Summer may not official be here, but it has sure felt like it
these last few days.
During the summer months, my husband (who works outside) 
does not care for  a big huge meal.  
He would rather something cool and light.

A few years ago, I was introduced to 
Seven Layer Bean Dip Recipe



Mine looks nothing like this one!
I have to leave some stuff out since
my husband does not like tomatoes, and
one of my dd does not like lettuce..
so mine looks more like this:


Still and all  it makes for a great light lunch... 
best thing...
my girls love what they think is "junk food" for lunch!
It really is so simple.  
This has become one of those hot summer
day meals for my family.
(Especially when I don't want to turn on my oven or stove)

Enjoy!

1 Thessalonians 5:24
Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

He is faithful to do all He has promised in his Word. I'm so glad that he is faithful to meet our needs and to give us our wants. There is no one Greater than OUR LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!
