Seven Layer Dip

Either for my eleventh or twelfth birthday I convinced my mom that I should be able to have a party with my friends. She thought I was too old to have a birthday party, and really, she probably didn't want to deal with all the work of putting it together. But she said I could have one, as long as I planned it myself. I chose to have this dip at my birthday party, but I had no idea how to make it. She told me what to do, and that was my first experience making this dip. I'm sure everyone has a different method of creating this dip since it can be done so many ways, but this is the family stand-by recipe for this dish.

Seven Layer Dip

In a 9x13 pan, layer the following:

1 can refried beans
Sour cream, mixed with some taco seasoning
Guacamole
Grated cheese
Sliced olives
Fresh tomatoes, diced
Green onions (or some other onion), chopped

Other topping options: lettuce, bell peppers, salsa, chilies, cilantro (ew!)

Serve with a spoon to accompany tortilla chips!
