Make Delicious Nobake Mexican Party Dip

This dip is a favorite on game night.


This colorful no-bake Mexican party dip is full of fresh flavors and is always a big hit. This dip is easy to assemble, and there is no cooking involved.


Instructions


1. Spread the refried beans in the bottom of a large baking dish or two smaller baking pans. A 9-by-13-inch pan works well. Use a clear glass baking dish to see the layers through the sides.


2. Remove the seeds and skin from the avocados. Mash the avocados and layer them on top of the beans.


3. Mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice and taco seasoning mix in a small bowl. Layer the mixture on top of the avocados.


4. Chop the chives and sprinkle them over the sour cream mixture. About 1/4 cup of chives is plenty.


5. Sprinkle the grated cheddar over the chives and sour cream mixture. Make sure to cover the entire layer.


6. Seed and chop the tomato (seeding keeps it from getting the cheese all wet). Evenly spread the chopped tomato over the cheese mixture.


7. The final topping is the sliced black olives. Be sure to drain them first!


8. Put the dip in the fridge for an hour or so. This allows the flavors to mingle.


9. Enjoy with your favorite tortilla chips!
