8 Layer Mexican Dip


Because nothing says New Year's weight-loss resolution like a Mexican dip, and because seven layers wasn't enough.

And I officially make too many Mexican dishes.

What you'll need:
1 can refried beans
Taco seasoning
1 can chopped green chilis
Sour Cream
Guacamole
Taco sauce
1 can rotel
1 can sliced olives
1 bag shredded Mexican cheese
1 block shredded Monterrey Jack cheese

Throw the can of refried beans in a pan over medium high heat.

Add some taco sauce.

And some taco seasoning.

And the can of undrained chilis.

Mix it all up and let it sit for a minute or two. This gets rid of most of the "canned" taste.
 Add the beans to a 13x9 dish.

Add the Mexican cheese.

Now throw the sour cream into a pan over low/medium heat.

Add a splash of taco sauce.

Mix it up! We're trying to give this a little KICK.

Gently smooth it on top of the cheese.
Smooth the guacamole on top of the sour cream. Don't be concerned if they blend together-they have an undeniable chemistry.

Sprinkle the top with rinsed black beans.

Top with the freshly grated Monterrey Jack cheese

 Top with the can of drained rotel.

And finally, sprinkle with the sliced olives that no one really likes.

But you have to have them.

So throw out the resolutions, grab the tortilla chips, and go to town.

Love and beans,
Rachael
