Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 can refried beans
- 1 cup guacamole
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup salsa
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 cup sliced olives
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 can of refried beans, 1 cup of guacamole, 1 cup of sour cream, 1 cup of salsa, 1 cup of shredded cheese, 1/2 cup of sliced olives, and 1/2 cup of chopped green onions.
- Choose a large serving dish or a shallow bowl for layering your dip. A clear glass dish works well to showcase the colorful layers.
- Start by spreading the refried beans evenly at the bottom of the dish. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth it out into a flat layer.
- Next, add the guacamole on top of the refried beans. Carefully spread it out to cover the beans completely, ensuring an even layer.
- Now, spoon the sour cream over the guacamole layer. Gently spread it out to avoid mixing the layers below.
- Pour the salsa over the sour cream layer, ensuring it is evenly distributed across the dip. You can use the back of a spoon to help spread it out gently.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the salsa layer, covering it completely for a cheesy finish.
- Finally, garnish the dip with sliced olives and chopped green onions. Distribute them evenly on top for a colorful presentation.
- Once all layers are assembled, your Layered Mexican Bean Dip is ready to serve. You can enjoy it immediately with tortilla chips or cover it and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Tips
- Use a clear glass dish to showcase the beautiful layers and make your dip Instagram-worthy.
- For best results, use room temperature ingredients to help them spread more smoothly.
- Chill the dip for 30 minutes before serving to help the layers set and enhance the flavors.
- Customize your dip by adding jalapeños, diced tomatoes, or a drizzle of hot sauce for extra kick.
- Serve with a variety of chips - tortilla chips, corn chips, or even fresh vegetable sticks work great.
- Make sure to spread each layer gently to prevent mixing and maintain distinct, beautiful layers.
- This dip can be prepared up to a day in advance, making it perfect for party prep!
