Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1 can (16 oz) refried beans
• 8 oz cream cheese
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup salsa
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 0.5 cup black olives, sliced
• 0.25 cup green onions, chopped
• 0.25 cup jalapeños, sliced (optional)
• 1 bag (optional, for serving) tortilla chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat and stir in the taco seasoning according to the packet instructions. Set aside.

Step 3

Spread the refried beans evenly onto the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to create the first layer.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the refried beans as the second layer.

Step 5

Pour the salsa evenly over the cream cheese and sour cream mixture to create the third layer.

Step 6

Sprinkle the taco-seasoned ground beef evenly on top of the salsa as the fourth layer.

Step 7

Top with the shredded cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese to form the fifth layer.

Step 8

Sprinkle sliced black olives, chopped green onions, and jalapeños (if using) on top of the cheese as the final layer.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve warm with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos or wraps.
