Are you ready for Game Day?! The big game has started, and we’re all rooting for our teams, what better way to cheer them on at home than enjoying delicious snacks too? I made the Best 7 Layer Taco Dip for our party!
In my taco layer dip with ground beef, we used our homemade taco seasoning. You can make this Mexican layer dip to your liking even if you’re meatless by skipping the meat.
We decorated in our favorite colors using streamers across the table. The tablecloth is a green tablecloth and if you wanted you could even do white streamers which would be fun! I cut them about 5 inches longer on both sides so I could tape under the table. It actually helped keep the tablecloth in place, not just the streamers.
I found some cute foam footballs that we’re really enjoying for parties too. I just plop them onto the table and the guests love them! You can find this decor and more at Walmart. If you can’t find the footballs, they’re pretty easy to make with foam paper! I always use paper straws for parties too!
I put Pepsi™ into the freezer before our guests arrived and if you plan it out well enough they will get a little slushie! This is due to the fact that the water content in them freezes, but the sugar part doesn’t! Just make sure you don’t leave them in too long or you’ll have an exploded soda, no good!
We left them in there for about 2 and a half hours in zipped plastic bags to be safe. I like to open at least three of the cans to show our guests how handy the tab is! It’s a great straw holder.
I made a double batch of our dip. I can’t get over is how good this dip is cold, even the meat. I make everything ahead of time and save them in the fridge with the lid on.
For the meat I use my Taco Seasoning Mix Recipe. Never buy those packets again, make it at home!
We went to our local Walmart to pick up SNICKERS®, Skittles®, Pepsi™, TOSTITOS® Scoops Party Size and TOSTITOS® Medium Chunky Salsa to create our ultimate game day snacks.
What I love about the Skittles® is that you can basically take your favorite colors and put them into your snacks along with the SNICKERS® and popcorn, we made a fun “layered” sweet treat. Our guests loved them! I used SNICKERS® Minis 40oz and Skittles® XL 41 oz.
The dip was definitely the hit of our table, our guests kept telling me that it was the Best 7 Layer Taco Dip they’ve ever had! I put so much love and time into anything I make.
We made our homemade fresh guacamole recipe, homemade ground beef with corn and beans and really made sure it was the best it could be. It’s already requested that I make it again this week by hubby!
For dipping into our taco layer dip we bought TOSTITOS® Scoops Party Size bag. It was GONE by the end of the night aside from a few crumbs. I was so happy to see that our guests enjoyed.
I used TOSTITOS® Medium Chunky Salsa, it’s a little spicy if you eat it plain, but we had so much in the dip to cool it down that it actually mellowed out perfectly. If we had purchased the mild, I’m not sure there would have been enough background heat, it was right on and it was still safe enough heat wise for the kids to eat.
