4 Layer Bean Dip Recipes

Steps:

• In medium bowl, mix refried beans and taco seasoning mix. Spread mixture on large platter.
• In another medium bowl, mix cream cheese and chiles. Carefully spread over bean mixture.
• Top with salsa, lettuce, cheese, olives and tomato. Refrigerate until serving time. Serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• In a clear pie pan, or similar dish, spread a layer of bean dip. Top the bean dip with a layer of guacamole. Allow the layers to thicken in the refrigerator for approximately 20 minutes.
• In a mixing bowl, while the bean dip and guacamole chill, combine the sour cream and taco seasoning. When the chilled mixture is sufficiently thickened, spread a layer of the sour cream mixture over the layer of guacamole. Top the sour cream layer with the grated cheese. Garnish the layers with the jalapenos and tomatoes.

Steps:

• Get 1 rectangle backing dish with lid. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Shred both cheeses and mix together.
• Spread a thin layer of refried beans across the bottom of dish. Spoon a thin layer of salsa over the beans. Spread a thin layer of sour cream over salsa. Spread a thin layer of shredded cheese over salsa. (Repeat process till you have used all your beans, cheese and salsa)
• Bake in oven for 10 minutes, till cheese is melted. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Spread the refried beans on the bottom of a casserole dish. Layer the sour cream, salsa and shredded cheese into the casserole dish. Serve with corn chips.

Steps:

• Mix avocados, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
• Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, and taco seasoning mix.
• Layer ingredients as follows.
• Bottom layer: Bean Dip.
• Second layer: Avocado mixture.
• Third layer: Sour cream mixture.
• Fourth layer: Tomatoes.
• Fifth layer: Onions.
• Sixth layer: Olives.
• Seventh layer: Cheese (I like to use Colby Jack cheese).
• Top with extra sour cream/olives/salsa, etc. if desired.
• Serve with tortilla chips.
• **This seems to be a little bit better if you can chill it for a few hours or over night to let the flavors intensify**.

Steps:

• Spread refried beans in the bottom of a (1-quart) shallow edged serving dish (you can use a transparent dish if you'd like). Sprinkle the seasoning packet over the beans. Layer the diced tomatoes over the beans, the sour cream over the tomatoes, and the guacamole over the sour cream. Sprinkle the entire layered dip with cheddar cheese, followed by green onion and finishing it off with a layer of black olives. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix refried beans and taco seasoning, then spoon into a 13x9 baking dish.
• In the now empty bowl, mix softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Stir in the can of green chilis. If you like it spicier, you can also had a few drops of hot sauce at this point and stir well. Pour sour cream mixture on top of beans in baking dish and spread evenly.
• Sprinkle the two shredded cheeses evenly over the top of dish. At this point, you can bake the dip at 350 for about 20 minutes or until bubbly. Serve the toppings in small dishes on the side. Personally, our family likes it cold, and it's easier to serve cold for parties.
• If serving cold, top with layers of remaining toppings, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, Allowing it to chill for at least 30 minutes will help to meld the flavors.
• Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips or even sliced vegetables for dipping.
• TIP: I slice the toppings like tomatoes and olives on a layer of paper towels so that the juices get soaked up, and then transfer the toppings to the dish after they have had a chance to drain. This helps to prevent the dip from getting "wet" while refrigerated.
