Nacho Bar + 8 Layer Dip

This was the scene on Saturday night as my sisters and I gathered at my house to celebrate Mother’s Day with my mom…

You know what that is? It’s a Nacho Bar.

You know who instigated it? Me.

You know what we did? We ate it all, drank beer, and then went to see a movie.

Now, if this doesn’t sound like the most unconventional, least fluffy Mother’s Day, then I don’t know what will. Anyways, back to this dip… 8 layers of dipping goodness… in individual servings none-the-less! It might look complicated, but it only took me about 30 minutes to prepare. You can vary the level of spiciness to your tastes, opting for a hot salsa vs a medium salsa.
