A quick and easy layered taco dip featuring creamy guacamole, sour cream, seasoned refried beans, salsa, and fresh toppings. Perfect for parties and casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (16 oz) refried beans, smooth texture preferred
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz) salsa, chunky or smooth
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz) guacamole, freshly made or store-bought
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz) sour cream, full-fat or Greek yogurt as substitute
  • 1 cup (about 4 oz) shredded cheddar cheese, sharp or mild
  • 1/2 cup (about 2.5 oz) chopped tomatoes, seeded
  • 1/4 cup (about 1 oz) chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup (about 1 oz) sliced black olives, optional
  • Thinly sliced jalapeños, optional
  • Tortilla chips, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, stir the refried beans with 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning until well combined. Add a teaspoon of water if beans are too thick. Set aside.
  2. In another bowl, gently fold together the guacamole and sour cream until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes, keeping a slightly marbled effect.
  3. Spread the seasoned refried beans evenly over the bottom of a 9×9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish, pressing gently to create a flat surface.
  4. Spoon the salsa evenly over the beans, leaving some texture intact.
  5. Spread the guacamole-sour cream mixture over the salsa carefully to keep layers distinct.
  6. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the creamy layer.
  7. Top with chopped tomatoes, green onions, sliced black olives, and jalapeños if using.
  8. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  9. Serve chilled or at room temperature with tortilla chips.

Notes

For best results, chill the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to meld flavors and firm up layers. Use ripe avocados for guacamole. Avoid overmixing guacamole and sour cream to keep a marbled texture. Drain excess liquid from salsa and tomatoes to prevent sogginess. Optional toppings like jalapeños add a spicy kick. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days.
