I really need to add more recipes to my arsenal. I tend to make the same things over and over again, and even I get bored with them. This looks yummy.

I admit I tend to do the same thing. Hubby and I are trying to eat healthier so I need to find some fun ways to spice up the same foods.

Sarah L says
That looks good and yummy and has eye appeal. Not as pretty, but I’d put it in a shallower bowl so it’s easier to get into.
Colleen says
I agree for the purpose of ease a shallow bowl is perfect my sister makes something similar and she uses a baking dish long rectangle.

I make a version of this but I don’t like avocado so I leave that out, I actually make a 7 layer dip. Thank you for sharing this recipe, I’d love to try it without the avocado.

I adore this lower-fat version of a layer dip! And you made it look sooo good with the bowl and perfect layers – I don’t need the superbowl to want to make this – asap!!!
