This 7 Layer Dip is our favorite, because it's so thick, creamy, and cheesy! The addition of cream cheese really makes this dip stand out!

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces refried beans (about 2 cups homemade)
  • 12 ounces guacamole (about 1 1/2 cups homemade)
  • 16 ounces sour cream
  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • 3 ounces canned sliced black olives
  • 2 roma tomatoes diced
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions

Instructions

  • Warm the refried beans in a microwave safe bowl for 2-3 minutes or until easily combined when stirring together. Spread beans into a deep dish pie plate or 8x8 baking dish.
  • Spread the guacamole over the top of the beans.
  • Add the sour cream, cream cheese, and taco seasoning to a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Spread over the guacamole.
  • Layer on the shredded cheese, black olives, tomatoes, and green onions.
  • Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with tortilla chips and pork rinds for dipping.

Notes

A squeeze of fresh lime juice over the top really amps up the freshness and makes the flavors pop.

Store tightly covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. The guacamole will oxidize and the tomatoes may release some liquid as it sets, but overall the dip holds up pretty well.
