Description
Make this easy, no-bake Tex-Mex Layered Dip for your next gathering. It features distinct, flavorful layers that are always a guaranteed hit.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup prepared guacamole
- 1 cup salsa, drained well
- 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 1 cup chopped black olives (optional)
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh tomatoes (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix the sour cream and taco seasoning until fully combined. This creates your seasoned sour cream layer.
- Select a clear, shallow serving dish, like a 9×13 inch pan or a large glass pie plate, to show off your layers.
- Spread the refried beans evenly across the bottom of the dish to form the first layer.
- Carefully spread the seasoned sour cream mixture over the beans for the second layer.
- Gently spoon the prepared guacamole over the sour cream layer.
- Pour the drained salsa evenly over the guacamole layer.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese blend over the salsa layer.
- If using, top with chopped black olives and fresh tomatoes for the final layers.
- Cover the dish and chill the **Layered Dip Recipe** in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This helps the layers set.
- Serve your **Best Seven Layer Dip** cold with tortilla chips, making it the perfect **Game Day Appetizer**.
Notes
- Drain your salsa thoroughly; excess liquid will make the lower layers watery.
- You can prepare the bean, sour cream, and guacamole layers a day ahead. Assemble the remaining layers just before serving for the freshest look.
- For a heartier dip, mix 1/2 pound of cooked, drained ground beef seasoned with taco seasoning into the refried bean layer.
