- If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions by hand.
- To make the dip ahead of time, prepare the layers as directed and then cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Before serving, let the dip come to room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Serve the dip with pita chips, crackers, or vegetable crudités.
- For a vegetarian version of the dip, omit the ground beef and add an extra can of black beans.
