Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 16 ounces refried beans
  • 3 ripe avocados (mashed)
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded, or Mexican blend)
  • ½ cup black olives (sliced)
  • ½ cup green onions (chopped)
  • Tortilla chips (to serve)

Instructions

  1. Layer refried beans: Spread refried beans evenly as the first layer in a large serving dish, such as an 8-inch square glass dish, to create a solid base for your dip.
  2. Prepare guacamole layer: Mash the ripe avocados in a bowl, then mix in the lime juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Spread this guacamole mixture evenly over the refried beans layer.
  3. Season sour cream: Combine the sour cream with the taco seasoning until well mixed. Spread this seasoned sour cream evenly over the guacamole layer to add a creamy, flavorful middle layer.
  4. Add salsa layer: Carefully spoon and spread the salsa over the sour cream layer, ensuring an even coverage for a fresh and tangy flavor.
  5. Sprinkle cheese layer: Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese or Mexican blend over the salsa layer to add a rich and melty texture.
  6. Add toppings: Scatter the sliced black olives followed by the chopped green onions on top of the cheese layer to finish with savory garnishes.
  7. Serve: Serve the 7 layer dip immediately with tortilla chips for dipping, or chill for one hour to allow flavors to meld beautifully.

Notes

  • Chilling the dip for an hour before serving enhances the flavor combination and texture.
  • For a meatier version, add a layer of cooked, seasoned ground beef or shredded chicken between the refried beans and guacamole layers.
  • You can swap cheddar cheese with Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or a Mexican cheese blend for different flavor profiles.
  • To make this dip dairy-free, substitute the sour cream and cheese with your preferred dairy-free alternatives.
