Seven Layer Dip Cups

This easy appetizer contains seven delicious layers including seasoned beans and creamy guacamole. The individual servings are perfect for parties and avoiding germs!

I could live off of Mexican food alone. We love tacos, carne asada fries, and of course queso. These Seven Layer Dip cups have all my favorite flavors like refried beans, salsa, and even guacamole.

Great For

• Birthday parties or picnics
• Cinco De Mayo
• Taco Tuesday

Why I Love This Recipe

• Individual Servings: Instead of fighting over a big platter of it, why not give your guests their own individual serving. Bonus: Great for preventing the spread of germs too! 🙂
• Easy: These are super easy to make, anyone can do it!
• No Cook: No oven is required.

Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips

• Refried Beans:  I used Old El Paso Vegetarian refried beans. Refried black beans would be a yummy twist.
• Taco Seasoning: I used store bought, but homemade would work too.
• Guacamole: For this recipe I used Wholly Guacamole. Look for it in the refridgerated section if your sueprmarket. Mine was near the store made salsa/pico de gallo.
• Plastic Cups: Look for plastic cups in the paper plate aisle. Mine were labeled as dessert cups!

What To Use For Dipping

• Tortilla chips: Duh!
• Fritos
• Doritos: Nacho cheese is our fave!
• Veggies: We like carrot sticks and celery.
• Crackers: Wheat thins, Ritz, or even Triscuits.
• Potato Chips

How To Make Seven Layer Dip Cups

1. Season Beans: Combine beans and taco seasoning.
2. Assemble: Layer beans, guac, salsa, sour cream, and cheese.
3. Garnish: Top with green onions, black olives, and tomatos.

Tips

1. Perfect Texture: Drain any extra liquid from your refried beans and salsa.
2. Don’t make ahead: This dip is best assembled just an hour or 2 before serving. It can draw water and the avocado will turn brown if you make it too far in advance.
3. Piping: Break our your piping bag or plastic baggie for perfect layers every time.
4. DIY: You could also lay out the ingredients in a buffet in case your guests have allergies or are picky eaters.
