This is a simple 4 layer dip, great for partys!!

Ingredients

3-4 Medium to Large Avacadoes

18 oz Sour Cream

1-2 cups Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese

1 jar Chunky Salsa (your favorite kind)

1 Tomato

Following Items are to taste for Guacamole

Salt

Real lemon juice (or lime if you prefer)

Ground cumin

Garlic powder

Preparation

Guacamole

For the guacamole it is best to make about 30 minutes before putting everything together.

First cut the avocadoes in half and take out the pit, mash them up until it gets to the consistency you like. I like mine slightly chunky.

In a medium bowl mix together avocadoes, about 2 tablespoons of sour cream, ground cumin, salt, lemon juice, chopped tomato and garlic powder. Remember to add to taste. Start with small amounts and keep adding until it tastes just right. I also put in a pinch of sugar, but its not required. After the guacamole is made place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to let all the spices set.

Dip

In a dish, (I use a rectangle Tupperware dish, anything will work), place guacamole on the bottom, then add the chunky salsa, top that with the sour cream (spicing the sour cream with taco seasoning or cumin works if you want a little more spice) and top with cheese. And there you have a fantastic easy dip!

Cook's Notes

You can use store bought guacamole as well. I just like making my own. You can also use fat free or reduced fat sour cream and cheese to lower calories. Enjoy with tortilla chips.
