(Photo borrowed from the Internet)

If you are planning to make dip this weekend to bring to the party, here is a way that you can make it lighted delicious and fresh.  


The entire dish works out to be approximately 30 PointsPlus Values, so based on that you will have to figure out how much you are willing to eat (and count).

Here you are: layer by layer:
Read the whole recipe FIRST there are a few extra ingredients you will need - I have highlighted all the ingredients for you.

Take a glass dish (approximately 7 or 8 inches in diameter and at least 3" deep)

Layer 1
1 x 14.5 oz can refried beans

Layer 2
1 whole ripe avocado; you will mash this roughly in a separate dish and add about 2 Tbsp of lemon or lime juice and about 2 Tbsp chopped cilantro (if you don't have fresh, you can get frozen cubes at Trader Joe's) and a little salt.

Layer 3
1/2 cup sliced green onions

Layer 4
1 1/2 c mixed diced tomatoes and sweet peppers in small dice (tomatoes can be chunky; 1/2" size but the peppers really should be about half that size).  Use any color peppers, the more the merrier, and make sure the tomatoes are fresh.  Mix it all and add about 2 Tbsp of lemon or lime juice and 2 tsp of olive oil.

Layer 5
1 c (8 oz) fat free sour cream or use 8 oz fat free plain greek or regular yogurt mix the sour cream or yogurt with 2 dashes of your favorite hot sauce.

Layer 6
15 ripe kalamata olives; yes, I do count them, cut them into halves or quarters.

Layer 7 
3 oz Weight Watchers reduced fat shredded Mexican style cheese.


Refrigerate it until you need it.
