Addictive Layered Mexican Dip

Quick and simple, this is a great appetizer or potluck food!

 


Ingredients

(1)  9 oz. can bean dip -fat free is good
1 cup sour cream – reduced fat.
1 ½ tblsp taco seasoning packet
2 green onions - root ends trimmed, dark green ends trimmed, minced
4.25 oz. can chopped black olives - drained
1 large tomato – diced
1 cup salsa
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese – reduced fat

     ½ tsp chili seasoning
¼ cup diced red onion

     ¼ cup bruised and chopped cilantro
Directions
In a bowl combine the bean dip and taco seasoning packet until well blended.  In a separate bowl combine the sour cream and chili seasoning until well blended.  Begin layering all the ingredients on a 1-2 inch deep serving plate as follows;

  1. Bean dip
  2. Sour cream
  3. Green onions, olives, tomato, and red onion
  4. Salsa
  5. Cheddar cheese
  6. Top with fresh cilantro
Refrigerate until ready to serve

Tip
I make this with reduced or fat free ingredients you don't loose the flavor and create a healthier dip.  I like to serve it using different varieties of chips.  I think it helps to make it interesting and colorful.
