7-Layer Dip

Anita made this the other day for a family get-together.


You don't see 7-layer dips much any more. I'm not sure why, they're great! (If I'd made this, I would've added some heat. Like maybe some diced jalapeños or hot sauce, but that's just me.)

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup mayo
• 1 10 oz can refried beans
• 4 T taco seasoning (1 store-bought packet or use our favorite recipe)
• 2 ripe avocados
• 1/2 lime, juiced
• 1 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
• 1/4 cup black olives, sliced
• 1 green onion, sliced
• Tortilla chips

1. Mix the sour cream and mayo.

2. Warm the beans. Add the taco seasoning and mix.

3. Chop the avocado into another bowl. Add the lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. Mash well.

4. Begin assembling dip in a 9x13 dish. First, spread all of the bean mixture out. Next, add the avocado (it won't spread easily, so just spoon it over the beans). Third, add the sour cream/mayo. Next, the cheese, followed by tomato, black olives, and green onion.

5. Serve with tortilla chips.
