Hot & Cheesy Taco Dip!

I made this the other night as an appetizer when we had guests over and it was a huge hit!  I prepared all of it ahead of time and put it in the oven as our guests arrived!

I mean, really, how could you go wrong with cheesy, creamy taco dip with all the fixin’s?  Needless to say, it was gone almost as soon as I put it out!
