Beefy Taco Dip

This recipe is another one with Mexican flair. It's easy to throw together and would work well as an accompaniment to a meal or along side other snacks while relaxing and watching your favorite sports team. It's a wonderfully filling and satisfying dip. I've served it with fruit and cookies as a lunch or light dinner. Have a great weekend. Blessings...

1-1/2 tsps. chili powder
