Ingredients:
For Layer 1:

For Layer 2:
- 2 ripe Avocados
- 2-3 tbsp Lemon Juice
For Layer 3:
- 3-5 tbsp Sour Cream

Prepare Ingredients: Start by gathering all the ingredients for each layer. Ensure the avocados are ripe and ready to be mashed.
-
Layer 1 – Refried Beans: In a bowl, mash the garlic cloves and mix them into the refried beans until well combined.

Layer 2 – Avocado Mixture: In another bowl, scoop out the ripe avocados and mash them with lemon juice until smooth. Spread this avocado mixture evenly over the refried bean layer in the pie plates. You can also use a 9×13 pan for this step.

Layer 3 – Creamy Topping: Combine sour cream and mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip) in a bowl. Carefully spread this creamy mixture on top of the avocado layer. It may be a bit thinner than the previous layers, but don’t worry, it will add a delightful creaminess to the dip.

Layer 4 – Fresh Toppings: Finely chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the creamy layer. Then, add diced tomatoes and sliced black olives for extra flavor and visual appeal.
-
Cheesy Finish: Finally, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over the top of the dip, covering all the layers.

Serve: Just before serving, garnish with your favorite combination of toppings around the inner edge of the pie plate for a beautiful presentation. Serve with crispy tortilla chips for dipping.
