If you grew up in the midwest like we did, you know exactly what a 7 layer dip is! You can find it pre-made at the grocery store in the deli or maybe you’ve had the delicious and dirty version with extra sour cream at a family reunion. Don’t get me wrong, those versions are very tasty, but we set out to create a healthy version of this dip without taking all of the fun out of eating it (ie: healthy food should still taste delicious!). We can now firmly say that: this dip is oh so delicious and fun and easy to prepare. Win win!! It’s a fun for weeknight appetizer, or a healthy game day snack! We’ll walk you through how to make it 😀
How to Make Healthy Taco Dip

Layer 2: Hummus Spread layer 2 evenly over the top of greek yogurt layer. It’s okay if some of the hummus mixes together with the Greek yogurt!
Layer 3: Canned black beans, fresh cilantro and red onion
Next, mix all ingredients for layer 3 into a bowl, and sprinkle evenly over the top of the hummus layer.

Brought this to book club and it was loved by all, especially ME! I used a store-bought guac because frankly I was exhausted on friday evening after a long week. Have you tried it without the hummus? I think that would bring the guilt factor down even lower for me.
I think I have just found a new healthy snack! This looks so delicious!
Thank you for sharing the idea! May I ask you what “Franks” is? Is it a special condiment? (Asking as a non US girl)
🙂 it is a specific brand of hot sauce!!!
Yum this looks amazing and way healthier than the normal version!!
RIGHT. It is SO good.
I made this for an event tonight, and realized the photos include olives…you might want to mention thwt in the ingredients/directions, even if they are optional. Will let you know how it is received, I’m betting people love it!
Hey Amy! Thank you for the heads up. We did forget it in layer 7. All fixed! It is a great recipe for a group, I hope people enjoy it!
