How To Make Seven Layer Bean Dip:
Start by blending plain yogurt, green chilis, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Place in an oven-safe serving dish.
Dietitian Tip: If you're interested in information on the nutritional benefits of yogurt click here.
Next, you can add the can of black chili beans on top.
Pro Tip: Chili beans have extra flavor already in the can, helping make a delicious dish, quickly!
Layer the white chili beans on top.
Pro Tip: Drain some of the excess liquid from the cans of chili beans, but do not rinse.
Add 1 can of drained corn nuggets on top of the chili beans.
Pick your favorite salsa and layer that on next.
Top the salsa with shredded sharp cheddar, or your favorite cheese blend, then bake. The dip just needs to be in the oven long enough for the cheese to melt and the dish to warm.
Pro Tip: Don't overcook or cook at a higher temperature or the yogurt-based bottom layer will curdle. If that happens, the dip still tastes delicious, but it won't look pretty!

This was really easy to make and it disappeared quickly when I brought it to a get together!

I'm really looking forward to making this for today's Super Bowl! What size oven-safe dish do you use? I was planning on using a round oven safe dish that's about 10" in diameter. One of your pics almost looks like it's in a 9x13 glass dish. I couldn't find the white beans, but our store had kidney beans in in the chili sauce.....guessing that's ok. Hope you have fun today and thanks!

Hi Cindy! I'm so sorry I didn't see this earlier! I used a 9 x 9-inch pan so your 10-inch pan should have worked. I'd love to hear what you thought of the recipe!
Cindy P. says
No prob! I figured based on the amount of ingredients there are in the recipe, the dish I used would be ok. I liked the recipe, and it was a hit! I might've left too much liquid in the beans and will drain more next time as it ended up a bit "liquidy." Thank for this--our family is new to trying to eat more gluten-free for one of our family members, and it's been a fun adventure. This recipe came up when I was looking for GF appetizers and glad I found it!

Great News! We had to do the gluten-free thing at my house for several months as well, so I hear you! So glad you found the recipe and hope you'll check out some more on the website sometime! 🙂

I want to make this for a bday party appetizer ..Do you use gluten free chips or something else?
Thank you
Create Kids Club says
Hi Lynn! Thanks for reaching out. Feel free to use whatever chips are your favorite. If you'd like to keep it gluten free then yes, grab a bag of those. I'd love to hear how you like it!
