Units
Scale
- 1 (16 oz) can refried beans
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 2 cups guacamole
- 1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)

- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
- 1 cup diced tomatoes

Instructions
- Prep the Base: In a mixing bowl, combine refried beans with taco seasoning. Spread the seasoned beans evenly in a 9×13 dish.
- Layer the Guacamole: Gently spread the guacamole over the refried beans, ensuring an even layer.
- Add the Creamy Layer: Mix sour cream with a little taco seasoning (optional) and spread it over the guacamole.
- Salsa Time: Evenly distribute the salsa or pico de gallo on top. If using salsa, ensure it is well-drained to prevent a watery dip.

- Final Toppings: Add diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, and chopped green onions for extra flavor and texture.
- Chill & Serve: Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve cold with tortilla chips.
