Seven Layer Taco Dip

SUBMITTED BY: SUE CASE PHOTO BY: Erin

"I am continuously asked to bring this dip for parties and family get-togethers. People gather around the platter until it's gone. Five layers of Mexican-inspired delights are topped by a layer of vegetables, then smothered in cheese and garnished with black olives. The vegetables may be varied according to taste."
