What Are the 7 Layers?

  • refried beans
  • avocados
  • sour cream/shredded cheese/seasoning
  • black olives
  • chopped tomatoes
  • chopped jalapenos
  • chopped oninons

To be fair, I kinda cheat – it’s not technically seven layers because I totally use a delicious Pico De Gallo to combine the Tomatoes, Jalapenos and Onions. Yum!

But this step is not necessary, and could also be replaced by a nice chunky salsa as well.

  1. I love 7 layer dip so much, it makes me want to just grab a spoon and dig in even without the tortilla chips. 🙂

  2. I see 7 layer dip all the time, except yours is better because you can actually see everything 😉 I don’t have a sombrero, and Murray is probably happy because you bet I would be taking his picture LOL

  3. This looks amazing and I laughed when you talked about the sombrero because I own 3 and I didn’t even think to pull one of therm out. But I’m still learning.

  4. Oh my gosh this is incredible. I must try this one out when I have my sis in law over. She loves these types of dips. Stunning and perfect for Sunday Supper.

  5. this dip looks amazing and so the does the photography. I have tried a 5 layer but I am really to take it up a notch to 7 layer! Thanks for sharing during #sundaysupper

  6. You are correct! Everybody loves a good layered dip. I love the colors and the layering of all flavors I love. I love Mexican food.

  7. I love that you chopped up the avocado instead of making guacamole with it. Just brings a new range of textures to the dip that you wouldn’t normally get! Plus, you’ve piled all the stuff I like on top and left what I didn’t (the beans) on the bottom! My type of dip!

  8. I have always drooled over this stuff & wondered how they make it. You make it seem so simple & your version is the best ! Maybe I’ll pick up courage to make this sometime soon :0)

  9. This is fast and so mouthwatering! It would probably be my whole meal. And I suspect eating this is a wonderful mess!

  10. ooh yum! my sister used to make something similar called a walking taco–haven’t had that in ages!

  11. I have always drooled over this stuff & wondered how they make it. You make it seem so simple & your version is the best ! Maybe I’ll pick up courage to make this sometime soon :0)
