My sister Mandi is the master of the layered taco dip. When she brings it to a family gathering it is gobbled up in no time.
Some call it 7 layer taco dip or a layered bean dip, I just call it layered taco dip as depending on my mood and or the ingredients I have on hand it could be 5 layer dip or even 9 layer dip. Whatever strikes your fancy. Regardless of the number of layers, this taco dip is always a hit. Use it for your next fiesta or tail gate and watch it disappear. 😀
