This Easy 7-Layer Bean Dip Is A Must For Your Next Home Match!

I love it when my partner brings her yummy 7-layer bean dip to our home matches. I swear, I could eat the whole thing by myself!

This easy-to-make Mexican dip has layers of flavored refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, cheese, olives and green onion… perfect to nosh on after a league match!

The secret to this bean dip is flavored refried beans. Canned refried beans are bland and boring, so these are seasoned with a little cumin, garlic powder and chili powder, though you could also use pre-packaged taco seasoning.
