Instructions

  • To prepare the cheese layer, scoop out 3/4 cup of spreadable Mexican Cheese and whisk in very hot water until it resembles queso - about 1/2 cup water (amounts as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size). Alternatively, use my Cashew-less Vegan Queso or 5-Minute Vegan Cashew Queso.
  • Next, prepare the guacamole by mashing all ingredients together in a bowl and adjusting seasonings to preference. Do the same with the pico de gallo (or just use your favorite salsa).
  • To assemble the dip: Spread out vegetarian refried beans, then top with cheese layer, then guacamole, then pico or salsa, then bell pepper, then black olives, then cilantro.
  • Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate. Can be made up to 1 day in advance.

Notes

*Nutrition information is a rough estimate.
*The origins of 7 layer dip are rooted more in American culture, but the flavors and ingredients are inspired by Mexican cuisine.
