GUACAMOLE Layer

  • 3-4 medium ripe avocados
  • 1-2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
  • salt and pepper to taste

SOUR CREAM LAYER:

  • 1 1/2 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method

  1. Bean layer – mix the refried beans and salsa together until creamy and smooth
  2. Evenly spread in a 9X13-inch (or slightly smaller) dish
  3. Guacamole – mash the avocados, lime juice, cilantro and salt and pepper together until desired consistency
  4. Spread the guacamole evenly over the refried beans
  5. Sour cream layer – stir together the sour cream and all the seasonings until smooth and evenly combined
  6. Spread evenly over the guacamole, covering completely all the way to the edges so the guacamole doesn’t turn brown

  9. The dip can be made 8-12 hours in advance
