Everyone loves a good 7-layer dip, and it's really easy to prepare a vegan version.
Ingredients:
1 16 oz. can vegan refried beans, preferably organic.
1 Tbsp. vegan taco seasoning mix
1 cup vegan sour cream alternative (I use Tofutti brand.)
1 cup salsa
1 cup shredded organic lettuce
1 cup vegan shredded "cheese" (Tofutti is a good choice.)
1/2 cup chopped green onions
2 Tbsp. sliced black olives
Directions:
Mix the refried beans and taco mix and spread into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Layer the remaining ingredients over the beans. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
Note: When purchasing prepared foods such as the refried beans, taco seasoning and dairy alternatives, it is important to read the ingredients. Animal by-products often appear in unexpected places. One of the most common is casein, a milk protein, in some vegetarian (but not vegan) cheese and dairy alternatives. Be careful with the refried beans, too, as some are made with lard or beef "natural flavors."
