This recipe isn't so new so doesn't really go with my New Year's resolution, but it's still a recipe. This is actually the 4th Superbowl that I've made this same 7-layer Dip. I originally made it off of this recipe found on the can of Taco Bell brand refried beans, but over the years I've altered it a little. This became my go-to Superbowl recipe because it didn't actually involve any cooking since it's a cold recipe. The old me would always stick with cold recipes when it came to bringing things to parties (i.e. dips like this, fruit salad, etc.). But this has been a hit at every Superbowl party I've ever gone to so why stop making it now, plus this year I have baked goods to accompany it!
all the ingredients in preparationIngredients:
1 16-oz can of refried beans (I used Old El Paso brand Vegetarian Fat Free)
1 cup sour cream (I used Friendship brand light sour cream)
Taco seasoning
1 cup guacamole (in past years I've made my own, but this year I went with Whole Foods brand. It's so good!)
1 cup salsa - any kind you like! (I went with Trader Joe's brand, fresh over processed)
1/2 cup chopped onions (I actually didn't use onions this time, even though they are pictured above, because the fresh salsa has onions in it already)
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese (above is Trader Joe's brand light cheese)
Other ingredients that you could substitute or add are chopped black olives (like the original suggests), tomatoes, jalapenos, and really just about anything you like!
Directions:
In 8x8 inch (or about that) pan layer all ingredients in the order listed. I just sprinkled the taco seasoning over the sour cream, before the guacamole, but you could also mix it in first. Cover and store in refrigerator for at least 3 hrs.
Serve with any variation of chips, crackers, or veggies.
I forgot to take a picture of the finished product before I covered it and put it in the fridge, but you can't really see much anyway since the top is just cheese and lettuce. I definitely recommend this for your next party or what not; it's delicious and not that unhealthy considering I used light or fat free ingredients. Not quite sure how to measure serving size on this one, just dip in and enjoy!
