As you start getting ready to plan your feast. I though it would be helpful to find a fast and colorful recipe that will help you to begin your bash on a happy note.
The Seven Layer dip combines two of my favorites - guacamole and refried beans. Best of all, it will only take you 20 minutes or less to prepare it. What can be better than that?
Ingredients:
- 3 avocados
- 1lb (450 g) of refried canned beans
- 1/4 tsp chili powder
- 12 oz (340 g) drained black olives, halved
- 1/2 red onion, chopped
- Juice of 1 lime or lemon
- 17 fl oz (500 ml) sour cream
- 2 green peppers, deseeded and finely chopped
- 8 tomatoes, chopped
- 1 lb 10 oz (750 g) Cheddar or Monterrey Jack cheese, coarsely grated
Directions:
Peel and mash the avocados with the lime juice, using a fork.
To assemble, layer the refried beans over the base of a large glass dish. Add the mashed avocados and then the sour cream and sprinkle the chili powder on top.
For the green pepper layer, sprinkle the chopped pepper around the perimeter of the dish first, to ensure that the pepper is visible, and sprinkle the rest evenly over the center. Layer the halved olives carefully on top ans spoon over the chopped tomatoes and red onions. Finally, add the cheese. Chill until ready to serve.
Serve with tortilla chips or toasted flat breads.
