Layered Bean Dip

Growing up, my mom made a killer 7 layer dip that had refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, onion and shredded cheese. This dip made an appearance at every football party, cocktail party or family function. It was ALWAYS a hit. Today I made a smaller version of this with homemade refried beans (pinto beans, chili powder, cumin, chipotle powder, sea salt, black pepper, agave and canola oil), diced onion, diced tomatoes and homemade guacamole (avocado, fresh lemon juice, agave, sea salt, garlic, sweet onion and jalapeno). Served with tortilla chips, this rocked our socks off!

Love this! The older i get, the more i can't handle refried beans, tho i do like 'em. Layered dips have eluded me over the years 'cause of the question of lard, the rennet in cheese and the sour cream, of which i was never a fan, but i would go crazy with your version! It's so pretty, too!
