Instructions

  • Drain the 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced olives and set aside. Slice the 1/2 bunch green onions and dice the 2 Roma tomatoes; keep the tomatoes, green onions, and olives separate until assembly (see step 10). Drain any excess liquid from the 1 cup chunky salsa or pico de gallo.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans and the 1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning until the seasoning is fully incorporated.
  • Place the 8 (9 ounce) plastic tumblers on a tray or work surface for assembly.
  • Divide the seasoned refried beans evenly among the 8 tumblers (about 1/4 cup or 4 tablespoons per cup). Smooth each bean layer lightly with the back of a spoon.
  • Divide the 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream evenly among the 8 tumblers (about 2 tablespoons per cup). Spoon the sour cream over the bean layer and smooth gently.
  • Divide the 1 cup guacamole evenly among the 8 tumblers (about 2 tablespoons per cup) and spread over the sour cream.
  • Divide the drained 1 cup salsa or pico de gallo evenly among the 8 tumblers (about 2 tablespoons per cup) and spoon it over the guacamole.
  • Sprinkle the 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese evenly over the salsa layer (about 2 tablespoons per cup).
  • Top each cup by dividing the diced tomatoes, sliced green onions, and drained sliced olives evenly among the 8 tumblers. If you prefer to make these ahead of time, wait to add the tomatoes, green onions, and olives until shortly before serving.
  • Garnish each individual dip with one tortilla chip. Refrigerate the assembled dips until serving. Serve with extra tortilla chips.

Notes

Notes
It makes it easier to place the wet ingredients like sour cream and guacamole in a Ziploc bag and snip of the corner for easy piping.
Note: All measurements are approximate. Depending on whether you want thicker or thinner layers you will need more or less.
