Mexican Layer Dip

I'm sure everyone has their own version of "7 layer dip."  I got a recipe many years ago from my sister called Mexican 8 Layer Dip.  I haven't made it in a long time.  But I made some this morning for our Super Bowl dinner tonight.  I think I ended up with 7 layers.    I'll post it as I made it.  I love this recipe/idea because you can basically add whatever you/your family likes.  I was also happy to finally have a chance to use one of my new serving dishes I got for Christmas.  It was perfect for this!
Mexican Layer Dip

2 cups shredded lettuce
1 can refried beans
1/2 cup salsa
8 oz. sour cream
1 avocado, diced or guacamole or avocado dip
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
(other possible toppings - sliced olives, diced onion, taco sauce, sliced green onions, sliced mushrooms, diced green chiles, corn)

Layer on platter in order listed.  Cover and chill 4-24 hours.  Serve with tortilla chips, crackers or raw veggies.
