This is my favorite game day treat. We love nachos, but when we have a party or get-together, I never make traditional nachos, because everyone just snacks a little here and there, and the nachos always get soggy. I don’t know about you, but I just can’t stand soggy nachos. Yuck! That’s why I just put all the yummy nacho fixings together as a dip. This way, everyone can just nibble throughout the game, without feeling pressured to hurry up and finish the nachos before sogginess sets in.

This is a layered dip, but because there are so many layers, 10 to be exact, we’re just going to call it a loaded nacho dip instead of a 10 layer dip. I started the dip with re-fried beans, then ground beef and homemade cheese sauce. Then I added all the other typical nacho toppings: lettuce, tomato, onion, fresh cilantro, olives, guacamole and sour cream. This makes enough to feed a crowd and would be perfect to make for any game day or get-together.
