How to Make Refried Black Bean Taco Dip
Spread the can of refried black beans in a 9×9 oven-safe baking dish that will also double as the serving dish so make it fun and pretty.
In a medium bowl mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, and taco seasoning.
Spread the mixture evenly over the black beans. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of the cream cheese mixture.
Bake at 350° for 15 minutes.
While the dip is baking prep all your toppings.
Remove the baked taco dip from the oven and top with the diced tomatoes, green onions, jalapenos, cilantro, black olives, and tomatillo salsa.
If you like, prepare extra toppings to serve on the side.
Dip a tortilla chip in and enjoy!
Make sure the lettuce is completely dry. You will also want to remove the seed from the tomatoes.
Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The topping will start to wilt and weep after a few days.
