The Super Bowl has become one of the biggest food "holidays" in the U.S., perhaps second only to Thanksgiving. Even people (such as myself) who don't follow the game, attend Super Bowl parties for the food. Every party needs a great dip. So when I was bouncing recipes off my husband, he emphatically said, "you have to make my mom's tex-mex dip!" If I even dared to suggest other types of dip, I heard, "NO! You have to make tex-mex dip!" I don't think I've ever heard him be so passionate about something. I'm not quite sure how to take that... considering his biggest affection apparently lies with cheese dip. Har-har, I kid.
