9 Layer Mexican Dip


While many incarnations exist, i have tailored my recipe to meet my dietary needs (food allergies/migraines). This dip uses lower fat and natural ingredients and is vegetarian-friendly, too. Feel free to modify to suit your tastes. That's what cooking (or in this case layering) is all about!!

Steps


In large mixing bowl , combine refried beans and salsa.
Consistency should be that of cake frosting--spreadable but not thick.
Adjust amount of salsa accordingly.
Spread bean and salsa mixture onto serving platter.
Layer remaining ingredients.
Serve with baked tostitos scoops tortilla chips.
Even my green-veggie-phobic children devour this dish ! this recipe is moderately spicy.
Change the heat of the salsa to adjust.
You could also top with jalapenos or other hot peppers to add more heat.
I sometimes use different greens instead of iceberg lettuce and use different cheeses.

Ingredients


refried black beans, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, lettuce, beefsteak tomatoes, cheddar cheese, black olives, pimento stuffed olives, green onions
