Yummy Taco Salad Dip

This is always a hit at any party! My friends and family beg me to make it every time! Use tortilla chips to scoop up the flavorful layers. The dip may be served immediately, but tastes best when chilled 1 hour.

  • 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
  • 2 avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
  • 1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 1 (16 ounce) package Cheddar cheese, shredded
 
  1. In a 12x12 inch or larger dish, evenly spread the refried beans in a thin layer.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the avocado and lemon juice until almost smooth. A few avocado lumps are desirable. Spread the avocado mixture over the refried beans. In a medium bowl, blend the sour cream and taco seasoning; spread over the avocado mixture. Sprinkle the tomatoes in a layer over the sour cream mixture, followed by the olives and the green onions. Top the dip with a layer of cheese.

I've been making my Seven Layer Taco Dip this way for years and it is always a huge hit. I think it is less heavy than the versions with cream cheese. I serve it in a 9-10 inch round, glass quiche dish and the presentation is pretty. Yummy!!

Doesn't serve 56 but enough for a small gathering. I use black beans a layer of fresh salsa and lime juice, add diced green chili's. This is a party pleaser.

This one is a classic that never fails to please. I made mine in a pyrex baking dish that was about 10"x10" and I felt as though 16 oz of cheese was a bit too much (I'd already grated a pound so I put it all on), I think it really depends on how big the surface area your dish of choice is. Also, I would definitly suggest seeding your tomatoes before dicing them, it will prevent the dip from getting wet and it will keep a lot better. This is one of those recipes I can never stop myself from eating too much of.
