Seven Layer Dip

Seven Layer Dip

Today Shirley and I were sorting through all of our old recipe cards and scraps of paper that had recipies jotted down. We came across this recipe for the classic seven layer dip, from my sister Sue. Plus we are going to a party later this evening.  Perfect we will make it and put in on the blog.  This worked out great because avocados are super cheap right now.

The Ingredients

1    package of taco seasoning

1    cup sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise 

2    16 oz cans of refried beans

1    4  oz can of chopped green chiles 

2    Cups of guacamole 

1    cup shredded colby-jack cheese

2-3 chopped tomatoes

3-4 chopped green onions

4   oz sliced or chopped black olives 

1   cup shredded lettuce

Mixing

Combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, and taco seasoning. Mix well until the taco seasoning is thoroughly incorporated. Mix and heat the two cans of beans and green chilies. The beans and chilies just need to be warm enough so that they can be easily spread.

Assembly

In a 9x13 dish (I prefer a glass dish), spread the beans with chiles in the bottom of the dish. 

On top of the beans spread the guacamole.
Next add a layer of the mixture of sour cream, mayo and taco seasoning.
On top of that sprinkle a layer of the shredded cheese.
Cover the cheese with lettuce.
Top with the olives, tomatoes, and green onions.

Serve with tortilla chips
