Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 (10 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup salsa, drained
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the refried beans with half of the taco seasoning. Spread this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish or shallow serving bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the sour cream and the remaining taco seasoning until well combined.
  3. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the bean layer.
  4. Spoon the drained salsa evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the salsa.
  6. Top with sliced black olives and chopped cilantro.
  7. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld. Serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • For a spicier dip, add a small can of diced green chilies to the cream cheese layer.
  • Drain the salsa well; excess liquid will make the dip watery.
  • You can assemble this dip a day ahead of time.
