1 can of Chili (don't get the cheap kind--you want the meatiest one they make)

1 jar mild or medium con queso cheese sauce
Voila! Easiest appetizer ever!

Pudding Parfaits

My mom brought these for dessert on Sunday. Yummy!

1. Layer of vanilla pudding
2. Layer of Danish Dessert
3. Layer of lemon pudding
4. Layer of vanilla pudding
5. Layer of strawberries and raspberries
6. Top off with whip cream
(I used instant pudding except for the Danish Dessert that has to be cooked.)
Cooked pudding would be tastier and smoother, but would take a lot longer. You have to let each layer set up before putting the next layer on. It can be made either the morning of or night before.
