7 Layer Dip

Hello, my name is Sinnetti Piper I’m a senior and excited for graduation. I started making 7-layer dip when my daughter was 1 years old. I was working in a huge call center and we had a pot luck and one of the women made 7-layer dip and I’ve loved it since that day. I asked how she made it and she gave me the ingredients. Over the years I’ve changed a few things and such as the beans. I love the beans to have a salsa taste so over the years I’ve found that Rosarita makes a zesty salsa fried beans. I started buying this brand, but I also add more salsa to the beans, not a lot just enough to give it that flavor. Also, there are times that I don’t add the green onions on top. I have been making this dip for 22 years and so far, it’s been a hit at every pot luck or dinner. This dip has been requested at pot lucks, Christmas, and Thanksgiving dinners as an appetizer. My children request when they come home from college. My husband loves it.

This dip consists of refried beans, sour cream, guacamole, chunky salsa medium, mild cheddar cheese shredded, sliced black olives and green onions. Nothing is cooked except for the beans. I warm the beans and add salsa to the refried beans. Once the beans are warm I start to layer. Once all the layers are finished I refrigerate for two nights, because this dip taste better cold. The best part of this dip are the chips. My favorite chips are Tostito hint of lime chips the combination of the dip and the chips are the best. Making this dip brings me joy, because I feel very appreciated by others when I make this dip. I remember the first time my son had this dip I could feel his joy and I loved the way his eyes lit up. When my children enjoy food, they dance. They will sometimes dance in the chair when they are eating or sometimes they will eat standing up and dance, it a very funny site, but I love it. I adore the fact when we have pot lucks at work my coworkers will ask are you making the dip, my reply is always the same yes.

Of course, not everyone likes 7-layer dip because there may be some ingredients that someone doesn’t like or are allergic too. There are people who just don’t’ like it, I never get offended because if or when there’s left over I can bring it home I know my family will appreciate it. The dip never goes to waste once it comes home. I do know the 7-layer dip it probably not the healthiest food, but it really tastes good. It doesn’t take long to prepare. Also, when I brought this dip to class the consistency was off because it needed to be refrigerated a little longer. I apologize for that because after I tasted the dip it seemed sort of loose it should have been more solid. I hope everyone enjoyed and if not, I understand. Thanks for allowing me to present.
