Cooking with Mom- "The Dip"

This is not a Middle Eastern Recipe, and to even call it a Mexican Dip would probably be insulting. This dip is simply one of my Mom’s classics. This appetizer is always requested for potlocks and is sure enough cleaned within the first hour without a finger lick left.

I will never forget when I was in second grade my mom packed me some dip for lunch. My teacher walked by and saw the dip and asked if she could have a chip, and I obliged. Then she returned and asked for more. Before I knew it, my lunch was eaten by my teacher! So, beware who you share this with….

“The Dip”

2 avocados
1 ½ TBS mayonnaise
1 cup sour cream
½ package taco seasoning
Shredded Mexican Cheese
1 chopped Tomato
1 can chopped black olives
1 bunch chopped green onions

Mash the avocadoes with a fork and mix in the mayo. Spread on the bottom of a 13x9x2 glass dish. Mix the sour cream and taco seasoning together. Spread on top of the avocado mixture, using care to not mix the 2 layers. Sprinkle cheese to cover. Add chopped veggies. Serve with tortilla chips.
