Down Home Layered Dip Recipes

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 saucepan heat the oil. Add the shallot and garlic and sauté until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the black beans and mash until smooth. Season with ground cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
• Spread the bean mixture in an even layer over the bottom of a 9-inch (25-cm) clear glass dish.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream and lime juice and season with salt. Spread the sour cream mixture over the bean layer.
• In another medium bowl, mash together the avocados, lime juice and zest, and season with salt. Spread the avocado mixture over the sour cream layer.
• Sprinkle with the cheese, tomatoes, olives, scallions, and cilantro. Serve with tortilla chips and hot sauce.
• Enjoy!
