7 Layer Bean Dip {Super Fresh}

7 Layer Bean Dip

Stud informed me this week that tonight’s football game is a very important one!  “Cowboys have to win this one to stay in the runnings to go to the playoffs!”  I had to come up with something fun to snack on so I can enjoy the game lots, too!

For this perfect football game appetizer, you’ll need a can of refried beans, a can of black beans {rinsed and drained}, a small can of black olives {sliced}, grated colby jack cheese, sour cream, 1/2 tomato, avocado, a bit of lime juice, a bit of taco seasoning and salsa.

Finely dice half of a tomato.

Remove the avocado pit by making one swing of the knife into the pit until it is secure in the pit.

Rotate the knife counter-clockwise until the pit pops out of the core.  Spoon the avocado out of the peel.  Thinly slice 1/4 avocado for garnishing.  Mash the remainder of the avocado in a small bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon taco seasoning.  Mix until well blended.

Place the refried beans inside a microwave safe bowl.  Microwave for two minutes so that the beans are an easier consistency to work with.  Remove from the microwave and add a tablespoon of sour cream for creamier beans.

 Add 1 Tablespoon of taco seasoning to the beans for flavor.
 
In a square glass pan, layer refried beans, sour cream, guacamole, black beans, cheese, tomatos and black olives.  Garnish with a dallop of sour cream and thinly sliced avocado.  Refrigerate for several  hours or until chilled.  Serve with tortilla chips and salsa.
