We have been making this for Superbowl practically every year since it was first published. And now that I have kids we're making even more often. EVERYONE loves it!

I make this all the time especially when my kids had get togethers etc. with their friends. It is great, easy and not too fatty, greasy etc. I have been making it for years and my daughters still ask for it. This recipe is a keeper. I don't always make the ita chips as Tostitos scoopers etc. are fine for this recipe.

Very easy to make, my family liked it very much. I would make it again, specially for game days or get togethers. I served it with Tostitos Scoops and Fritos Scoops.

Very good! Next time I'll add a chopped jalapeno for more spice.
