Easy Mexican Dip

Submitted by Jubes

"This dip is always a hit at parties. The kids like it too! It is a layered dip with tomatoes, lettuce, mexican flavoured sour cream and cheese. You can add a layer of refried beans down first if desired. Serve with corn chips. For a gluten free dip ensure the seasoning mix is gluten free or you can make your own using "Recipe#96014". If you like some extra heat use some cayenne pepper with the taco seasoning mix"

This is a great QUICK company's coming recipe. I made this in about 5 minutes. I like the sour cream as opposed to cream cheese. It just felt much "lighter". I added a few crushed garlic cloves & a dash of salt to the avacados when i mashed them. It was a huge hit! I served this with chili as a side & people were even spooning it into the chili ....VERY YUMMY! I made a second batch the same day to take to a friends for the afternoon, SO EASY!!!!!
