Tons of dairy and refried beans keep traditional seven-layer dip heavy on digestion. For a fresh take on a favorite, this lightened-up recipe still curbs cravings but with an extra boost of filling fiber. And even though we're lightening up the layers with some healthy swaps, the dip will keep the festive look and variety of textures that everyone loves.
