I am so excited about this dip because it’s one that you will want to keep eating and eating and then come back for more! Remember the classic 7-Layer Mexican Dip?  This is similar, but this party bean dip has fewer layers, and it’s baked instead of being served cold.

How to make Homemade Tortilla Chips:

These chips are made with flour tortillas. You can use regular or fat-free or low carb flour tortillas.

Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges, and arrange the wedges in single layers on 2 baking sheets. Lightly spray the wedges with cooking spray; sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 350°F. for 15 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp. Cool.

Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges, and arrange the wedges in single layers on 2 baking sheets. Lightly spray the wedges with cooking spray; sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 350°F. for 15 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp. Cool.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the beans, juice and cumin, stirring until well combined. Spread the mixture evenly into an 11x7-inch baking dish (or a deep dish pie plate) coated with cooking spray. Spread the salsa evenly over the beans. In a small bowl, combine the corn, onions, and olives; spoon the corn mixture evenly over salsa. Sprinkle cheese over the corn mixture.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbly. Let stand for 10 minutes. Top with sour cream; sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • If you don't want to bake your own chips, purchase baked chips (or others) at your market.
  • It's important to use regular cheese (not low fat) for this recipe. The low fat stuff doesn't melt well.
