Next, spread avocado mixture over entire surface of eans, then add sour cream mixture. Sprinkle layers
4,5, and 6 in any order, using as little or as much as your taste dictates. Generously cover with layer 7 (cheese), finishing with layer 8 (the black olives) for garnish. Makes 15 to 20 servings.
Note: This could be a 5,6,7,8, or 9 layer dip depending on your own taste and imagination. Play with it and listen to the raves from your party guests.
