Ingredients

Guacamole

  • 2 avocados
  • ⅛ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper plus more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice plus more to taste
  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro

Vegan Sour Cream Mixture

  • ½ cup vegan sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix

Base and Toppings

  • 1 (15-ounce) can refried beans
  • Olive oil as needed
  • 4 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced (about 2 cups)
  • 1 bunch green onions, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 2 cups vegan Mexican-style shredded cheese
  • 1 (2.25-ounce) can black olives, drained and finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Container: Prepare a 9x9 container with a lid and set it aside for assembling the dip.
  2. Make Guacamole: In a bowl, mash the avocados with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until chunky. Add lime juice and cilantro, then continue mashing until creamy with slight chunks. Place an avocado pit in the bowl to help prevent browning, cover, and refrigerate.
  3. Prepare Vegan Sour Cream Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the vegan sour cream with taco seasoning. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Cover and refrigerate.
  4. Smooth Refried Beans: If the refried beans are too dry, drizzle with a little olive oil and mix until smooth and creamy.
  5. Assemble the Dip: First layer - spread refried beans evenly on the bottom of the container. Second layer - add dollops of vegan sour cream mixture over beans and gently spread to cover without mixing. Third layer - add dollops of guacamole and gently spread evenly. Fourth layer - sprinkle diced tomatoes evenly over guacamole. Fifth layer - sprinkle chopped green onions evenly over tomatoes. Sixth layer - spread vegan shredded cheese evenly over green onions. Seventh layer - top with finely chopped black olives.
  6. Chill and Serve: Serve immediately or cover the container and refrigerate until ready to serve. For best flavor, let it rest 20-30 minutes before serving to chill layers and let flavors meld.

Notes

  • To save time, use store-bought guacamole instead of preparing fresh.
  • Let the dip rest 20-30 minutes chilled before serving for improved flavor and melded layers.
  • For a visually appealing presentation, use a glass container to showcase the colorful layers.
