Prepare the Base
Begin by spreading a generous layer of hummus over the bottom of a 1-quart glass dish. This forms the creamy foundation for your dip and adds a rich, savory flavor. -
Add the Avocado
Slice the ripe avocado and evenly distribute the slices over the hummus layer. The creamy texture of the avocado complements the hummus beautifully. -
Season with Lime Juice
Drizzle fresh lime juice over the avocado slices. The lime juice adds a tangy brightness and helps to balance the flavors of the dip. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste if desired. -
Layer the Salsa
Spoon a layer of chunky salsa on top of the avocado. The salsa brings a burst of fresh flavor and color to your dip. -
Add Sour Cream
Gently spread the sour cream over the salsa layer. This adds a creamy, cool texture that contrasts nicely with the tangy salsa. -
Finish with Cilantro
Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro over the sour cream. The cilantro adds a touch of freshness and a burst of flavor that ties all the layers together. -
Chill and Serve
Cover the dish and refrigerate until you are ready to serve. This allows the flavors to meld together and makes the dip more refreshing. -
Enjoy with Chips
Serve your Baja Dip with crispy tortilla chips for dipping. The combination of flavors and textures makes for a deliciously satisfying treat.
