Ultimate Layered Taco Dip Recipe

Ingredients

- 1 can (16 oz) refried beans
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning mix
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup black olives, sliced
- 1 can (4 oz) diced green chilis, drained
- 4 green onions, chopped (reserve some for garnish)
- 1 cup chunky salsa
- 1 fresh tomato, diced
- 1 avocado, diced (reserve some for garnish)
- 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend recommended)
- 1 bag (11 oz) tortilla chips
- 1 bag (9.25 oz) Fritos

Instructions

1. Prepare the Base Layer
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the refried beans, taco seasoning mix, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly until well blended. Spread the bean mixture evenly on the bottom of a 9x13-inch (or similar-sized) serving dish.

2. Create the Creamy Layer
In a separate bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and fully incorporated. Carefully spread the mixture over the bean layer.

3. Add Savory Layers
Evenly distribute the diced green chilis and sliced black olives over the cream mixture. Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top, reserving some for garnish.

4. Spread the Salsa
Pour the chunky salsa over the layered ingredients, spreading it evenly for consistent flavor throughout.

5. Top with Fresh Ingredients
Scatter the diced tomato and diced avocado over the salsa layer. Add the shredded cheese, covering the dip entirely.

6. Refrigerate
Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least PT1H (1 hour) to allow the flavors to meld and the dip to set.

7. Serve
Before serving, garnish with reserved green onions and avocado for a burst of color. Serve the dip chilled with tortilla chips and Fritos on the side for dipping.
