Author Notes
If you like classic seven-layer dip, you’ll love this eight-layer version. This crowd-pleasing appetizer is easy to put together and can be served cold or at room temperature, so it’s perfect to take to a last-minute barbecue or picnic (but it can also be assembled up to a day in advance if you’ve already made plans). And the best part? It’s made up almost entirely of kitchen and pantry staples, so whatever you don’t already have on hand can easily be added to your cart—it’ll cost you next to nothing when it comes to new ingredients.
Fill a baking dish with canned refried beans, sour cream, two kinds of pre-made salsa, shredded cheese (we’re partial to Walmart Great Value Mild Cheddar or Fiesta Blend), packaged guacamole (or sliced avocado), and pico de gallo. Were you counting? That’s seven layers. Finish off the dip with a thick layer of crushed tortilla chips over the top for the eighth and final layer. Of course, you’ll want more for serving, so grab an extra bag of chips while you’re shopping. —Rebecca Firkser
