SIX-LAYER DINNER

Steps:

Top with celery, tomatoes and basil. , Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour or until vegetables are tender.

SIX-LAYER DIP

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mash the avocados with lemon juice, garlic salt and hot pepper sauce. Spoon into a deep-dish 10-in. pie plate or serving bowl. Layer with sour cream, olives, salsa, tomatoes and cheese. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve with chips.

SIX LAYERS AND A CHIP DIP

Steps:

• On a cutting board, smash the garlic cloves, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the salt, and, with the flat side of a large knife, mash and smear the mixture to a coarse paste. Put the garlic, beans, chili powder, water, and olive oil in the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth. Spread in the bottom of a 2-quart casserole or gratin dish, or in individual sized dishes, as desired.
• Scatter the cheese over the beans. Halve and seed the avocados, then mash with the jalapeno and another teaspoon of salt in a small bowl. Spread a layer of the avocado over the cheese, and then scatter the lettuce on top.
• Mix the yogurt with the cilantro and then spread over the lettuce. Add a layer of tomatoes and, finally, scatter the scallions on top. Chill until ready to serve. Garnish with a few cilantro sprigs and serve with baked chips.

SLIM SIX-LAYER DIP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, beans and chili paste and heat until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Using a potato masher or fork, mash the beans. Remove from the heat, add 2 tablespoons water and mash until somewhat smooth. Spread in a 2-quart glass casserole dish.
• Scatter the cheese over the beans. Halve and pit the avocados; scoop out the flesh into a bowl and mash with 1 teaspoon salt and the lemon juice. Spread the avocado over the cheese.
• Reserve some scallions, cilantro and jalapeno for garnish. Pulse the yogurt with the remaining scallions, cilantro and jalapeno in a blender or food processor. Spread over the avocado. Top with the lettuce. Season the tomatoes with another teaspoon salt and scatter over the lettuce. Top with the reserved scallions, cilantro and jalapeno.

SEVEN LAYER DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Layer potatoes, carrots and onions in a large buttered casserole dish. Sprinkle the uncooked rice over the vegetables. Then add the peas (with liquid) and arrange the pork sausage on top of that. Dilute tomato soup with a can of water and pour over the sausage. Season with salt and pepper.
• Bake covered in a preheated oven for 1 hour, then uncovered for an additional hour.

• Pour the tomatoes over the mixture.
• Bake for 2 hours at 350°F (I cover with foil after about an hour).

SIX-LAYER DISH

Steps:

• Layer first six ingredients (in order given) in greased casserole dish, seasoning each layer with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle with brown sugar.
• Baked at 300 degrees for 2 ½-3 hours.

SEVEN LAYER GREEN SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Chop or tear up lettuce and place in 9 x 13 dish
• Chop up celery and add on top of lettuce. Add a sprinkling of salt and pepper.
• Chop hard boiled eggs and add on top. Again, add a light amount of salt and pepper.
• Crush bacon and add on top of eggs.
• Add chopped tomatoes and green onions, then top with 2 cups cheese.
• Pour on 10 ounces partially frozen peas. (I just let the frozen peas set out while I'm preparing this dish. The peas will thaw enough by the time it's time to eat.)
• Stir together mayo and sour cream. Mix well. Spread on top of the frozen peas. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Sprinkle remaining cheese on top. (I used cheddar, but Parmesan would be delicious too!)

SEA PIE (SIX PATES)

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, cook meat over medium-low heat until the mixture begins to brown. Mix in onions and celery, and continue cooking for about 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Arrange 2 pie crusts in a single layer on the bottom of a large roasting pan. Spread 1/2 of the meat over the pie crusts. Arrange 2 more pie crusts over the meat layer, and then spread remaining meat on top of the pastry. Top with remaining pastry. Press the pastry to the sides of the pan, and poke 8 small holes in the pastry to allow steam to escape.
• Bake for 1 hour, or until dough is golden brown and the pie is hot and bubbly.

INDIVIDUAL SEVEN LAYER DIP CUPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix taco seasoning with refried beans. For a different and yummy taste, mix your taco seasoning with your sour cream layer.
• Layer the dip in each cup. I found that using a small cereal spoon worked best for me as a spread each layer in the cup. Here is the order I did: beans/taco seasoning mix, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, shredded cheese, tomatoes, olives, and green onions.
• Store in the refrigerator until serving and serve with chips.
• I was able to make about 12 cups of dip. They were a huge hit!
• If you wanted to, you could use the same amount of ingredients and spread it out in a 9x11" pan to make one large seven layer dip. ???? It will still taste amazing!
