I strongly believe that when you spend a lot of time or money on a costume you should get as much use out of it as possible. That is why every Halloween I jam pack our schedule with as many activities as possible. This year I think we are attending 7 different activities/events that require dressing up.One of these activities was a potluck and so I decided to bring some graveyard dip.

The pin I had posted is a dead end, so I just googled Graveyard dip to get some guidance and inspiration. I used my go to bean dip recipe, which is the rave at every party I take it to.
Here’s the recipe:

Bean Dip:
2 – 16 ounce cans refried beans
16 ounce tub of sour cream (I usually use reduced fat)
1- 8 ounce softened block of cream cheese(I usually use the low fat neufchatel cheese)
2 Tbsp of Taco seasoning (1/2 packet)
Shredded cheese to sprinkle on top

Instructions:
Mix the beans, sour cream, cream cheese, and taco seasoning together in a casserole dish. Make sure your cream cheese is softened or it really hard to mix in. Sprinkle the top with shredded cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Easiest dip ever! I have been asked for the recipe at every single event I have taken it to. Now to make it a spooky graveyard!

Using kitchen shears or a pizza cutter, cut out tombstone shapes and a tree. I actually made the tree with a pizza cutter, and I thought it turned out really well. I wrote on some of the tombstones with an edible marker. Spray your tortillas with cooking spray and let brown in the oven. I put mine in while the dip was cooking and it was 10 minutes at 350 degrees.

My bean dip didn’t stay level while I was transporting it, so I was happy to have something to sort of cover up the messy look.

I will reveal my kids costumes in this post too! I already posted this picture on Facebook, so it may be a repeat. Let me introduce Bowser and Princess Peach!

We had some actual portraits done of the kids in their costumes, so I will talk more about their costumes when I get those back and I have some cute pictures to show too!

I hope you are all having a fun and safe Halloween weekend!!
