Seven-Layer Dip Station
Turn a party classic into an interactive flavor experience! Instead of one finished dip, create a Seven-Layer Dip Station and let everyone customize their perfect scoop.
THE FOUNDATION (Classic 7 Layers)
1. Refried Beans – seasoned with cumin & fresh lime
2. Guacamole – avocado, lime, pinch of salt
3. Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt – blended with taco seasoning
4. Salsa or Pico de Gallo – bright, fresh, a little heat
5. Shredded Cheese – jack, cheddar, or a blend
6. Crisp Lettuce – for crunch
7. Black Olives – salty finish
Layer in a clear dish so the colors steal the show.
