Seven Layer Guacamole Dip

Submitted by Suburban Grandma

"This dip resembles a Taco Dip, but is much creamier and flavorful. I received many positive reviews on it, from the attendees at our last party. It keeps on calling to you...you can't have it just once! You can also use 14 oz of ready made guacamole paste from your deli, instead of making your own. Best served with bite size, or scoops, Tortilla chips."
