Ingredients

1 16-oz can refried beans
3 Tbsp taco seasoning, homemade, or 1 oz packet, divided
2 cups sour cream
2-3 cups guacamole, homemade or storebought
2 cups shredded Mexican-style cheese, or cheddar cheese
4 Roma tomatoes, diced (about 2 cups)
½ to 1 cup sliced black olives, 2-4 oz, or added to preference
½ bunch green onions, (¼ cup) finely chopped
½ small bunch cilantro, (¼ cup) finely chopped

Instructions

Heat the refried beans in a saucepan or in a bowl in the microwave until warm to soften them up and make spreading easier. Stir in half of the taco seasoning. Spread the beans into the bottom of a 9x13 glass casserole dish.
Spread the guacamole over the beans.
In a second small bowl, stir together sour cream and the remaining half of the taco seasoning. Spread the sour cream over the guacamole.
Sprinkle on the cheese then tomatoes, black olives, green onions, and cilantro. Serve with tortilla chips for dipping.
