Dianes Supreme Avocado Dip
- 4 ripe Hass avocados, pitted and peeled
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- Salt to taste
- 1 1/2 cups sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- One 1-ounce envelope ranch-style dressing and dip mix
- 3 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 3 scallions, white and green parts, chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
- One 2 1/4-ounce can chopped ripe olives, drained
- 1/4 cup drained and chopped pickled jalapenos
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- Mash the avocados and lime juice in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Season lightly with salt (the next layer is salty and will season the avocados).
- Spread the avocados in a thick layer on a round or oval platter.
- Stir the sour cream, mayonnaise, and dressing mix in a small bowl, blending well.
- Spread over the avocados, being sure to cover them completely.
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
- (The dip can be prepared to this point up to 5 hours ahead.)
- Just before serving, arrange a ring of the tomatoes around the edge of the dip.
- Make progressively smaller rings of the scallions, cheese, olives, and jalapenos, on the dip, ending with the cilantro in the center.
- Serve immediately.
