Quick and easy recipe for a crowd-pleasing Layered Mexican Dip, with colorful and delicious layers of refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, cheese, tomato, and cilantro.
Base Layer: Start with the refried beans on the bottom.
Second Layer: Top that with guacamole.
Third Layer: Evenly spread sour cream on top.
Fourth Layer: Add your favorite salsa on top.
Fifth Layer: Generously spread a layer of shredded cheese on top.
Optional 6th or 7th Layer: This is optional and totally customizable. If you want to turn this into a 6-layer or 7-layer dip, top the cheese with chopped tomato, cilantro, and chopped spring onions.
Notes
Refried Beans: If your refried beans are too thick, you can mix in a few tablespoons of warm water to loosen them up.
Using store-bought ingredients: I've made this dip many times by assembling store-bought salsa, guacamole, beans, etc, and it still tastes delicious. So, suit your convenience.
Make it Spicy: Add jalapenos or hot sauce to give it an extra kick of heat.
Salsa: Use salsa verde instead of red salsa to add a tart element.
Add Chicken or meat: Add a layer of seasoned ground meat or shredded chicken on top of the refried beans for some added protein.
