This dip is a dish in its own right! With so many layers featuring myriad textures, flavours and aromas, the 7-Layered Mexican Dip is nothing short of an exhilarating experience. The vibrant colour and crispness of lettuce meets your nacho chips as it begins its journey into this exciting dip. Then comes luscious sour cream, followed by aromatic capsicum and juicy corn, then tangy salsa, gooey cheese and crunchy spring onions, then refreshingly cold and creamy guacamole and finally the hidden treasure, the scrumptious and tasty refried beans! This dip is, you will realize, a superb adventure. Enjoy it immediately after preparation, while the textures are fresh and juicy.
