Mexican Layered Dip

This is an awesome dip to take to parties! It is fairly fast and easy to make and looks beautiful will all the colors and textures.

INGREDIENTS
3-4 medium avocados
2-3 cloves crushed garlic
1-2 Tbsp. finely chopped jalapeno pepper (add one Tbsp. at a time so as not to make it too hot)

Salt to taste – start with ½ tsp. you may need more
1 Tbsp. lemon or lime juice
1 cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix (1/4 cup)

1 cup chopped green onions
3-4 chopped tomatoes
2 cans (3.8oz.each) sliced black olives
8 oz. grated Mexican Cheese
Tortilla chips

DIRECTIONS
In a bowl mix the 2 cans of Frito bean dip together and set aside.

Place avocados, garlic, jalapeno, onion, salt, and lemon juice together in another bowl and then gently mash with a fork and then set aside (do not puree or mash too fine).

In a separate bowl combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and taco seasoning and set aside.

Layer on a large platter in the following order:
Bean dip
Avocado mixture
Sour cream mixture
Green onions
Tomatoes
Olives

Cover and refrigerate or serve immediately with your favorite corn chips.
