Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans
  • 1 packet (1 ounce) taco seasoning
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 container (8 ounces) sour cream
  • 1 packet (1 ounce) dry ranch seasoning mix
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup salsa

  • 1/2 cup chopped black olives
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix refried beans, taco seasoning, and water. Spread evenly in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In another bowl, combine sour cream and ranch seasoning mix. Spread evenly over the refried beans.
  3. Layer the shredded cheese over the sour cream mixture.
  4. Spread the salsa evenly over the cheese.
  5. Top with guacamole, spreading it carefully to avoid mixing with the salsa.

  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

  • For a make-ahead option, assemble the dip up to 24 hours in advance. Keep the cilantro, tomatoes, and onions separate and add them just before serving for maximum freshness.
  • Customize your dip by adding your favorite toppings like jalapeños, corn, or seasoned ground beef.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
  • Consider this a great alternative to some meal planning services, offering a crowd-pleasing appetizer.
