My Infamous Seven Layer Dip

Sure, anyone who lives in America and/or has been to a Super Bowl party before has probably tried some variation of seven layer dip. I have been making mine the same way for years now and lemme tell you, it really is the best. This dish gets requested at almost every party that I throw and is great for when you need something easy and yummy to whip together for a potluck.

To get it just right, it's important to follow the directions exactly as follows:

Equipment

11 x 7" Pyrex (clear dish so that you can see each layer)

Ingredients

* 2 16oz. cans of Spicy Refried Beans

* 4 Ripe Avocados 

* 1 16oz. Sour Cream 

* 1-2 bunches Green Onion, sliced into scallions

* 2-3 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese (make sure to buy the THICK shred)

* 2 large Tomatoes

* 1 small can of sliced (or chopped) Black Olives

THE LAYERS (from bottom to top)

(1) Refried Beans - spread with spoon evenly over bottom of pyrex

(2) Guacamole - mash avocados in a separate bowl and mix with bit of salt. Spread over beans. 

(3) Sour Cream - spread evenly over guacamole.

(4) Green Onion - chop it up and spread around! I always try to use as much of the onion that I can.

(5) Cheddar Cheese - Put enough cheese so that you can't see the layers beneath it.

(6) Tomatoes - BEFORE YOU SPREAD - chop up in a chunky fashion and spread them out on top of a large cutting board. Cover the tomatoes with a couple paper towels so that the excess juice gets soaked up in the towel. You may end up doing this a couple of times if the tomatoes are exceptionally juicy. (No one likes a watery dip!). Now, spread over the cheese.

(7) Black Olives - Spread desired amount over tomatoes - and you have reached the top!

One of my favorite parts about this dish is how pretty it looks when it's done! Pair it with Scoops! Tostitos Chips and bring this to any party and it is guaranteed to be a hit amongst any crowd. 

Enjoy!
