This easy 7 Layer Dip is always a HUGE hit at parties, potlucks and reunions. Refried beans, avocados, sour cream, cheddar, Monterey Jack, black olives, tomatoes and green onions combined with a few spices and herbs make this dip one of our all time favorites. No matter what time of the year it is this dip is always a hot commodity and one of the first dishes to go. I love to serve this at our neighborhood get togethers with Crispy Fried Mushrooms, Bacon Wrapped Shrimp, Buffalo Chicken Dip.
