INDIVIDUAL TACO LAYER DIPS



INDIVIDUAL TACO LAYER DIPS
1 (16 ounce) can re-fried beans
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 cup guacamole or make homemade guacamole
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 cup chunky salsa;
1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
2 tomatoes, diced
1/2 bunch of green onions, sliced
1 (2.25 ounce) can of sliced olives, drained
8 (9 ounce) plastic tumblers
tortilla chips
In a small bowl mix taco seasoning with re-fried beans. Some people prefer to mix their taco seasoning with the sour cream layer but if you want a bright white layer,do it with the beans.
PUT IT TOGETHER THIS WAY:
Layer 1: beans and taco seasoning;
Layer 2: sour cream;
Layer 3: guacamole;
Layer 4: salsa
Layer 5: cheese;
Layer 6: tomatoes;
Layer 7: green onions and olives
In each plastic glass, layer about 2 Tablespoons of the beans, followed by 2 Tablespoons of sour cream, 2 Tablespoons of guacamole, 2 Tablespoons of salsa , and 2 Tablespoons of cheese.

Make sure you drain your salsa to get the excess liquid out before you pour it on. Then top with about 1-2 teaspoons of tomatoes, olives, and green onion (If making ahead of time, wait to add these toppings until shortly before serving).

Garnish with one tortilla chip. Store in the refrigerator until serving and serve with chips. Makes around 8 individual dips.
Note: All measurements are approximate. Depending on whether you want thicker or thinner layers you will need more or less.
