Slim Six Layer Dip Recipes

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.

• Spread bean dip into the bottom of a 9x13 inch clear glass dish. Layer avocado on top of the bean dip. Sprinkle the lemon juice and garlic salt over the mixture. Spread the sour cream mixture over the avocados. Layer the olives over the sour cream, the tomatoes over the olives; spread the cheese dip and onions over the entire mixture. Serve with tortilla chips for dipping.

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.

Steps:

• Mash half the avocado with cream cheese until well blended; spread onto bottom of pie plate.

• Refrigerate several hours or until chilled.

SIX-LAYER MEDITERRANEAN DIP

Steps:

• First, strain the yogurt by putting cheesecloth or a paper coffee filter in the bottom of a strainer and pour in all the yogurt but 1/4 cup (reserve for later); let it strain for a couple of hours to thicken it up, or overnight (in the fridge) to make thicker "yogurt cheese" (I prefer it just for a couple of hours; you could also substitute sour cream for the yogurt, if you like).
• Combine the reserved 1/4 cup of un-strained yogurt with the prepared hummus, then spread mixture on the bottom of a 9 inch pie dish.
• Combine remaining strained yogurt and cumin and spread over the hummus layer.
• Toss together the garlic powder, salt, lemon/lime juice, chopped tomatoes, and avocado, then spread over the yogurt layer.
• Add a layer of the cucumbers and sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
• Add a layer of feta, then finish it all off with olives.
• Let chill for an hour before serving with pita chips (artichoke hearts are a good addition to this recipe, as well.).

6 LAYER MEXICAN DIP

Steps:

• Spread each layer, one on top of the next, on a large serving plate or glass pan.
• 1st layer- bean dip 2nd layer- guacamole*see my recipe* 3rd layer- (combined) sour cream, mayonnaise, taco seasoning 4th layer- (combined) green onions, black olives, tomatoes 5th layer- salsa 6th layer-cheddar cheese Refrigerate for a couple hours.

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!
