7 Layer Dip

I combined a few recipes to make this one. And I didn't use exact measurements as I went along so, if you try it and it could use a little more or little less, let me know :)

In a round baking dish...

Layer 1) 1 can of refried beans mixed with 1/4 pack of taco seasoning. Blend well.

Layer 2) 3 avocados (I used Haas) peeled and pitted. Pour lemon juice over the halves to keep from browning. 
1/4 teaspoon Cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
Mash all together with a potato masher. Keep it a little lumpy.

Layer 3) Sour Cream!

Layer 4) Lettuce, chopped/torn fine

Layer 5) Tomatoes, chopped and seeded (I used 3 roman)

Layer 6) Sliced Black Olives, drained

Layer 7) Shredded Cheese (I would have liked to had sharp but used mild instead)

Serve with your favorite tortilla chips :) Mine are Mission.

4 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks 
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce 
2 tablespoons brown sugar 
1 head iceberg lettuce, remove each leaf carefully
4 carrots, cut into matchsticks, or buy packaged shredded carrots!

In a large skillet with 1 turn of the pan of EVOO, brown the chicken on all sides, about 5 minutes. 
Add the teriyaki sauce and brown sugar, and cook until the sauce is reduced and the chicken is cooked through, about another 2 minutes
Top with shredded carrots

Serve in lettuce leaves, roll & enjoy!
