Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 16 ounces Refried Beans
  • 10 ounces Guacamole
  • 16 ounces Sour Cream
  • 1 packet Taco Seasoning
  • 1 cup Salsa
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheese
  • 1 cup Chopped Tomatoes

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Spread the refried beans evenly across the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish or serving platter, forming the first layer.
  2. Next, carefully spread the guacamole over the refried beans to create the second layer.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream with the taco seasoning packet until well combined; then, spread this mixture as the third layer over the guacamole.
  4. Evenly spread the salsa over the seasoned sour cream to form the fourth layer.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the salsa for the fifth layer.
  6. Finally, top the dip with chopped tomatoes as the sixth layer, and optionally add black olives or green onions if desired, serving immediately or chilling until ready to enjoy with tortilla chips.

Notes

For best results, prepare the dip just before serving to maintain freshness and prevent the guacamole from browning. You can also customize your layers with other favorite toppings like sliced black olives or green onions.
