Question about 7 Layer Dip? Is the taco seasoning supposed to mixed with the sour cream or the refried beans?
I've found recipes where the seasoning is either mixed in with the sour cream or mixed in with the refried beans or bother? Also, could you please list for me the 7 usual ingredients used in a classic 7 Layer Dip and the order by which they should be spread into the dish?
Answers:
This is only one variation. I chose it because it explains to put the taco seasoning in with the beans.
There are no set recipes when it comes to this dip. I add black olives, diced tomatos etc....
Fantastic Seven Layer Dip
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package regular taco seasoning mix
8 ounces sour cream (low-fat is okay)
8 ounces prepared guacamole (store-bought or home-made)
1 cup shredded four-cheese Mexican blend cheese or cheddar cheese (is fine)
1 cup mild salsa
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
1/3 cup sliced green onions
16 ounces tortilla chips
In a small bowl, combine beans and the taco seasoning mix.
Spread the bean/taco mix evenly over the bottom of an 8-inch square serving dish.
Layer with the sour cream, then the guacamole, then the shredded cheese, then the salsa, then the chiles and last, the green onions.
Serve with lots of tortilla chips-- delicious!
