We had a traditional Mexican Christmas and I being Polish had no idea what to make! This was my appetizer and was gobbled up so quick! The men were telling me to give the recipe to their wives 🙂
I used homemade refried beans, homemade salsa and homemade taco seasoning as well as reduced fat sour cream. This dip is ADDICTIVE. My family has darn near eaten the whole thing. SO delicious.
This was good but needs more a a kick. I only used 2 cups of Mexican Blend cheese & skipped the cheddar, that was plently of cheese. This isn’t something that I would serve to guest, but this being a non-cooking day (for me) everyone enjoyed it….And it only took 15 minutes to make. Thanks, I’m keeping this one.

Really good…and not having to add meat cuts the cost of making it. The only change I made was popping it in the oven for 20 minutes at 350. It was very good served warm. Also, I dirtied a couple of pans trying to find one that was a good size for the layers. A 9×13 worked best.
This was very good. I recommend using a 16 oz container of sour cream. To reduce “watery” problem mentioned by others I diced the tomatoes and drained off some liquid. Add tomatoes immediately before serving. After washing the green onion, pat them dry. Overall, a very good recipe.
Great dip. Followed recipe exactly!!!
I made this dip for a party and it was gone within minutes. I used hot salsa and added black olives on top. Next time I’m going to add diced jalapenos with the refried beens.
I love this recipe and make this often for our gatherings. Thanks!
I made this for Christmas Eve and it was so good. Let’s just say that it didn’t last long! Also, if you don’t like green onions, just leave them out. It didn’t take anything away from the great taste!
Absolutely fantastic! Will make again!
I have been making this dip for years and it is a hit at every party. It’s good to experiement with different types of salsa for different flavors.
Very good. Based on my sister in law’s history with dips like this I added the tomotoes just before serving as some times they the dip get soggy. Really tasty.
This is much better then the standard 7 Layer Dip. I made a few modifications: used refried black beans instead of regular, added olives and avacados to the top, and put 1/2 cup of cheese in the beans. It was a hit at the Chirstmas party! I will definitely be making this again!
I love this recipe. It is the best I have ever had. I change the toppings a little. I use mexican cheese and top with green onions and chopped black olives. It comes out great everytime. Everytime we go to a party I am required to bring this. Thanks for the awesome recipe. Update** I also add guacamole to this and I mix mayo and sour cream together with some southwest seasoning and put that on here. It is sooo good. This is now my signature dip!!
I liked this a lot, and so did my guests. It was the only appetizer that was all gone at the end of the night. I think it’s a simplier take on the 7-layer taco dip, which is also really, really great.
This dip was delicious! I served it to guests and they could not stop raving about it. I will definitely make again.
Very good and easy too. Might try it hot sometime.
PERFECT!!!
Its very good. I put a little to much sour cream the first time. ITS GREAT ALSO!!!
This was good, but not great. I have another 7 layer dip recipe that is very similiar, but does not use salsa, just has a layer of straight re-fried beans. I think mixing in the salsa makes it too thin and watery. Next time I will leave the salsa out completely.
