Taco Dip Recipe ๐ŸŒฎ๐Ÿฅ‘๐Ÿง€

Overview:

This Taco Dip recipe is a delightful blend of creamy avocado, savory beans, zesty sour cream, and crunchy veggies, all topped with gooey cheddar cheese and briny olives. It’s a versatile dish that’s perfect for potlucks, parties, or a quick snack at home. Plus, it’s easy to make and requires no cooking, so you can whip it up in just 20 minutes! Adapted from a classic recipe dating back to the 1980s, this version skips the tomatoes for a less soupy texture, and it’s even better the next day if you skip the lettuce too. For a heartier meal, consider adding browned and drained ground beef to the beans. Let’s dive into the delicious details of this crowd-pleasing Taco Dip!

Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
1 Avocado
1 Cup Sour Cream
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
2 Teaspoons Taco Seasoning
2 Cans Refried Beans
1/2 Cup Chopped Lettuce
1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 Bunch Green Onion
1 Can Black Olives
Salsa (for serving)
Tortilla Chips (for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Base: Spread the refried beans evenly in the bottom of a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.

  2. Mash the Avocado: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop out the flesh. Place the avocado in a bowl with lemon juice and Tabasco sauce (if desired). Mash the avocado with a fork or potato masher until smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture.

  3. Layer the Avocado: Gently spread the mashed avocado over the refried beans in the baking dish.

  4. Prepare the Sour Cream Mixture: In another bowl, combine the sour cream and taco seasoning, stirring until well blended.

  5. Layer the Sour Cream: Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the mashed avocado layer.

  6. Add the Toppings: Create layers of toppings over the sour cream mixture in the following order: chopped lettuce, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, and black olives.

  7. Serve: Serve the Taco Dip immediately with tortilla chips and salsa on the side for dipping. Alternatively, you can cover the dish and store it in the refrigerator until serving time.
