7 Layer Dip

Layers of refried beans, salsa, guacamole, cheddar cheese, and your favorite toppings make the perfect tortilla chip dip!

Ingredients :

  • 1½ cups salsa
  • 16 ounces canned refried beans 1 can
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 ounce taco seasoning 1 packet, about 2 tablespoons
  • 1 cup guacamole prepared
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup black olives or diced tomatoes
  • 4 green onions sliced
  • chopped fresh cilantro for garnish, optional

Directions :

  • Place salsa in a sieve and drain the liquid into a small bowl (this keeps your dip from getting runny).
  • In a small bowl, combine refried beans and milk (or you can use the liquid from the salsa if you prefer). Mix until smooth and spread in the bottom of a 2 qt baking dish or pan.
  • In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream and taco seasoning with a hand mixer on medium speed. Dollop the cream cheese mixture over the beans and spread evenly.
  • Spoon guacamole over cream cheese and gently spread. Add the drained salsa and gently spread.
  • Top with cheese, olives/tomatoes and green onions.
  • Chill 1 hour before serving. Serve with tortilla chips or crackers.
