This Graveyard Taco Dip layers refried beans, seasoned sour cream, avocado mix, salsa, and scallions. The creepy graveyard effect comes from tortilla cutouts baked until crisp, then decorated with a food-safe marker and placed into the dip before serving.
Ingredients
Directions
- Combine sour cream with taco seasoning in a small bowl.
- Mash avocados, then mix with minced garlic and mayonnaise in another small bowl.
- In a small Pyrex dish or pie plate, layer refried beans, then the sour cream mixture, then avocado mixture, then salsa.
- Sprinkle chopped scallions on top.
- Refrigerate for at least one hour, or until serving time. (Dip can be made a day ahead and stored covered in the fridge.)
- Cut tombstone and tree shapes from two large tortillas.
- Place cutouts on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F until browned.
- Use a black food-safe marker to write text on the tombstones.
- Insert the tortilla shapes into the dip right before serving.
