Spooky 7 Layer Halloween Spiderweb Taco Dip Food

HALLOWEEN 7 LAYER DIP

Steps:

• To a large bowl, add refried black beans and taco seasoning and mix well to combine.
• In a baking dish or serving platter (I used a 9-inch pie dish), layer beans, salsa, lettuce, olives, cheese, and diced tomato. Cover with guacamole, spreading it into a smooth layer.
• Add sour cream on top, using a squeeze bottle to draw a spider web shape. (I started by drawing intersecting lines in an asterisk/star shape across the dish, then curved lines in between to connect them!)
• Garnish the edge of the dish with more diced tomatoes, olives, and cheese. Serve with your favorite dippers!
• Yields 8 servings Halloween 7 layer dip.

SPOOKY 7-LAYER DIP RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix the taco seasoning with the refried beans.
• Spread the bean mixture evenly on an 11 inch plate getting close to the edge.
• Carefully spread ¾ cup of the sour cream over the bean mixture.
• Add the salsa very gently over the sour cream. If your salsa is really runny, drain off some of the liquid first.
• Apply the guacamole mixture over the salsa. I put dollops of guacamole all over and then carefully spread them together so that the salsa doesn't come through.
• Around the edge spread the grated cheese.
• Top the cheese with sliced olives, diced tomatoes, and sliced green onions.
• With the remaining ¼ cup of sour cream, put it into a sandwich bag and clip off the corner. Squeeze the sour cream into a web pattern over the guacamole.
• Top with plastic spiders.

SPIDER WEB 7-LAYER DIP

• 4. Place your sour cream in the end of a ziploc bag. Cut the corner off. Squeeze sour cream on top of guacamole in several concentric circles (or octagon shapes for a more authentic look). Using a knife or the handle of a fork, run lines lightly through the sour cream to make the web shape.
• 5. Sprinkle lettuce in a circle around bean dip. Sprinkle tomatoes and green onions over. Sprinkle cheese over.
• 6. Garnish with a creepy spider and serve with lots of tortilla chips!
