7 Layer Taco Dip

By Sam Pierce

Ingredients (~8 servings)

  • 1 can low-sodium pinto beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/3 cup prepared salsa
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • Small pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 cup prepared guacamole
  • 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup shredded Mexican-style cheese
  • 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup drained sliced black olives
  • 3 green onions, finely sliced
  • Tortilla chips for serving

Make the Bean Base Layer

In a medium bowl, mash the beans with the salsa, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne.

The beans don’t need to be perfectly smooth – some texture is good.

Spread this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×9 or similar sized serving dish.

Layer the Remaining Ingredients

Spread the guacamole evenly over the bean layer, then add the Greek yogurt on top.

The yogurt will want to mix with the guacamole if you’re not gentle – just dollop it on and spread carefully.

Top with the shredded cheese, then scatter the halved tomatoes, sliced green onions, and black olives over everything.

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
