Mexican Lasagna Chip Dip

SUBMITTED BY: ANNIE HIGHTOWER      PHOTO BY: lovemysox

"I'm not sure why it's called lasagna, but it is very good. A beef and refried bean mixture is buried in melted cheeses. Try serving it for a New Years or Superbowl party."

I made this for a party we had for the teachers at my daughters school. This was a big hit. Thanks.

Wow - this is really good! The Lasagna in the title has to go though! This is a Tex Mex dish without a smidgen of Italian. I softened the cream cheese to the extent that I just mixed all of the ingredients in a bowl, by hand, and it did fine. I don't have a lot of patience anyway to cut 16 oz of cream cheese into little pats. I also mixed the shredded cheese in but won't do this next time as it needs that color for a topping. One son wouldn't touch this because of its' "gastric" appearance. He missed out! I served this as a small meal in between a late Sunday breakfast and dinner. Be warned - this makes a TON! It really filled the entire 9 x 13 pan! This is very filling and rich and is to be served with sturdy chips.
