7-Layer Spider Web Dip
7-Layer Dips are already a party favorite, and this Halloween appetizer got a creative makeover adding a simple spider web and olive “spiders.”
Servings: 8 servings
Equipment
- 10 to 12-inch plate or pie tin or tart pan
Ingredients
- 1 (15-ounce) can refried beans
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup sour cream divided
- 1 cup mild or medium chunky salsa not watery
- 1 cup freshly grated sharp cheddar or Colby jack cheese
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 3 to 4 green onions diced
- 1/2 can drained olives divided
- 1 cup guacamole
- Tortilla Chips
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix taco seasoning with refried beans. Spread mixture evenly on the bottom of a 10 to 12 inch plate/pie tin/tart pan. Spread 3/4 cup sour cream on top, then gently spread.
- Add dollops of salsa and gently smooth on top. Add dollops of guacamole and spread slowly.
- Slice half the olives. Around the edge add freshly grated cheese, thinly sliced green onions, sliced olives, and halved cherry tomatoes. Put the remaining 1/4 cup sour cream into a plastic bag and cut off the tip. Squeeze sour cream into a spider web pattern over guacamole.
- Make olive spiders—halve a few olives lengthwise, then cut a few olives into small strips. Place halved olives in the mix and the strips around the halved olives to look like spiders.
- Enjoy dip immediately or within 10–15 minutes after preparing. Serve with tortilla chips.
