Seven Layer Taco Dip

For our Christmas gathering in addition to making a sweet, my favorite category of food, I tried out a new dip recipe, and it was a big hit! For your next party why not try this one out.


1 oz package taco seasoning mix
16 oz can refried beans, (Amy's brand is GF)
8 oz package cream cheese, softened
16 oz container sour cream
16 oz jar salsa
1large tomato, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 bunch chopped green onions
1 small head iceberg lettuce, shredded
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

1 In a medium bowl, blend the taco seasoning mix and refried beans.
2 Spread the mixture onto a large serving bowl.
3 Mix the sour cream and cream cheese in a medium bowl.
4 Spread over the refried beans.
5 Top the layers with salsa.
6 Place a layer of tomato, green bell pepper, red onions and lettuce over the salsa.
7 Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
8 Put in refrigerator to firm up layers a few hours before serving.

Takes about 45 minutes of preparation and will easily serve 15-20 people, but for a smaller crowd it's fairly easily to cut it in half.
