CATALINA DRESSING in a bean taco dip? Hmmm. Intriguing.
At first dip, my husband said, "this looks like the sauce needs to be poured off." We all looked at the bowl and thought, "wow! maybe he's right - it looks too wet!" This certainly doesn't interfere with the taste and dipping ability. The combination's tasty and not the least mushy (though maybe pouring off a little of the liquid or cutting down the Catalina dressing to 1/2 cup might make it look more "dippable?"). Of the three dips I brought to our Steelers' play-off party, this went the fastest - that must say something....
Like the critic when she said, "I really like this!"
