Stephanie's Slow Cooker Taco Dip
By: Stephanie Gallagher, About.com Cooking with Kids Guide
This Taco Dip makes a great Super Bowl recipe, because you can just dump everything in the Slow Cooker in advance, and let it do its magic while you're preparing other things. Leave the slow cooker on warm during the party, and let the guests dip away!
Notes
There is a wide range of cooking times because many of the newer slow cookers cook much faster than the older models. You know your slow cooker best. Check to see if the cheese is melted after 1 hour. If you have an older slow cooker, you may need to cook as long as 4 hours.
