0:00
- With so many men in my life, y'all, there is a lot of talk
0:06
about the big game day.
0:09
I tell you what, my grandsons, Jack and Mattie,
0:14
they can name every player
0:16
and probably their number, can't they, Eddie?
0:19
- [Eddie] Yeah, definitely Mattie.
0:20
- Mattie is so into it.
0:23
For Christmas, he got a trophy case
0:29
because he collects any kind of memorabilia, sports things.
0:36
And I've never seen anybody that young, just, you know,
0:39
just knock off all of these names and positions.
0:42
And I can hear his daddy saying something
0:45
and then Mattie will come back and correct his daddy.
0:49
Those two boys, those two Deen boys know their stuff.
0:53
So everybody's excited in my side of the world
1:01
So, thinking along those lines, every one of my children
1:06
and grandchildren so far love Mexican food.
1:10
And so I'm gonna make a layered Mexican dip
1:15
that was in my very, very, very first cookbook
1:18
and it's called Layered Mexican Dip.
1:23
So it's very, very simple.
1:27
The hardest part is getting your avocados prepared.
1:31
I have three avocados that I've mashed up
1:35
in with two tablespoons of lemon juice.
1:39
And I probably used about three.
1:41
And now I'm gonna put a little garlic salt
1:48
with my avocado, and then I'm gonna hit it
1:50
with just a little bit of my hot sauce.
1:54
Just a dash, this sauce, oh my gosh, it's so good.
2:01
But somebody that's not a lover of real hot stuff,
2:06
like to me, this is just the perfect amount.
2:11
All right, so gonna stir that up.
2:14
And so now we're ready to start putting our dip together.
2:20
And this is one of those perfect dishes
2:25
if you're invited to some friend's house for the game.
2:30
This is a great dish for you to take because you
2:33
can make it up ahead of time and it'll just get better.
2:38
But you got to make sure that you toss those avocados
2:41
in lemon juice so they won't turn brown on ya.
2:45
All right, now, I've got my mayonnaise here
2:48
and I've got sour cream.
2:51
And I'm gonna add one package of taco seasoning mix.
3:14
Smells like Mexico right now.
3:18
Doesn't that smell good, Eddie, you smell it?
3:22
- Mmm, boy, I can go for some tacos.
3:31
You almost saw a big accident.
3:35
Thank goodness you didn't get to see it, though.
3:44
So now that's ready, so here are our,
3:51
The first one that we're gonna put down
3:55
is bean dip and it calls for four cans of bean dip.
4:05
I don't recall ever using this much, but we'll see.
4:14
Just gonna spread that out.
4:28
I think we might be able to get by
4:30
with three of these, y'all.
4:35
You know, everything I have is in storage.
4:40
So, I don't have the perfect-sized pans.
4:49
So I'm just having to make do, so yeah,
4:52
let's just go with three cans for this.
4:56
Let's see what I said originally 100 years ago.
5:02
I just said in a wide shallow bowl,
5:04
so it must have been a 13 by 9 by 2
5:08
I was talking about, y'all.
5:19
All right, and the next thing that's gonna go on
5:24
top of our beans is our avocado
5:28
with the garlic salt and the lemon juice and the hot sauce.
5:37
Just spread that right on top.
5:39
Now the three avocados worked out just perfect.
5:49
This is gonna be so pretty.
5:50
You gonna be able to see it.
5:52
You're gonna be able to see the layers in the bowl.
5:59
All right, now the next layer
6:04
is our sour cream and mayonnaise
6:29
Not only is this delicious, y'all, it's very pretty.
6:38
And this size bowl is working out perfect
6:42
for all the ingredients.
6:44
I can't tell what size this is.
6:47
It's probably an, I don't know.
6:55
I don't know what size this is.
6:57
I don't know if it says.
6:59
Oh, I can't see, and you know what I'm gonna wind up doing,
7:01
I'm gonna wind up dumping that dip on my head.
7:20
The next thing is the picante sauce.
7:26
Or some kind of salsa, whatever you prefer.
7:36
I've had that drainin' now for a long time
7:38
and look at the juice still coming out out of it.
7:45
So you wanna make sure you drain that good.
7:54
Just gonna smear that around
7:58
into your mayonnaise and sour cream mixture.
8:09
Now we're gonna add some tomatoes.
8:14
Look like we had enough tomatoes in the salsa, doesn't it?
8:19
Kind of redundant usin' more tomatoes.
8:24
All right, now we're gonna put our green onions
8:27
which is the perfect topper
8:31
to this this delicious dip.
8:36
I mean, our dish is full, y'all.
8:40
And we ain't done yet.
8:55
Now, in the recipe, I tell y'all
8:57
to use a couple of different cheeses.
9:01
A little black olives.
9:02
Now, if I was making this for just Michael and me,
9:06
I would leave off the black olives
9:08
because he and I are not all that crazy about 'em.
9:16
All right, let's see, I'm gonna,
9:18
my strength, I'm losing my strength, y'all in my,
9:25
in this motion right here.
9:28
I can't have anything on my hands
9:30
'cause I just can't grip it.
9:33
All right, so I tell you to use a cheddar cheese
9:38
and a Jack cheese, but I'm using the already mixed
9:44
Colby Monterey Jack cheeses that are already done together.
9:49
So rather than buying two separate kind of cheeses.
10:00
Doesn't that look good?
10:04
All right, so whose house are we gonna go to
10:08
and watch this big game, Eddie?
10:11
- [Eddie] Right here.
10:12
- Oh, they're comin' here?
10:15
Let's take our dip and go to another house, okay?
10:20
All right, so here you go.
10:23
I mean, it's just wonderful.
10:24
I'm gonna finish off the top.
10:28
If I had a little bit more room, I'd put some more cheese,
10:31
but I love, I hated to put so much that you couldn't see
10:35
all those wonderful layers below it.
10:39
Can you see those good?
10:41
- All right, let's see if this side's better.
10:43
Yeah, this side is more better.
10:49
So we are ready to go.
10:54
You can make this a few hours ahead of game time
10:58
and you'll still have time to go fix your face
11:01
and pooed around the house a little bit.
11:05
What time is that big game this year?
11:11
- [Teresa] It's usually at nighttime.
11:13
- Usually at nighttime?
11:14
- [Eddie] Yeah, we're not there yet.
11:15
- [Teresa] No, we're not there yet.
11:18
Well, we are like a good Girl Scout.
11:20
We are always prepared.
11:28
Isn't that beautiful, Teresa?
11:31
And that beautiful Meyer lemon that I used to
11:39
soak those avocados in.
11:49
So we'll see y'all game day.
11:52
Love and best dishes.
