Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz can refried beans
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup green onions (sliced)
- 1 tbsp jalapeños (optional, for garnish)
- 1 bag tortilla chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the refried beans, cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, and taco seasoning. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
Fold in half of the shredded cheddar cheese and half of the shredded Monterey Jack cheese into the mixture.
Spread the bean mixture evenly into a baking dish (8x8-inch or similar).
Top the mixture with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese, spreading it evenly over the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the dip with sliced green onions and, if desired, jalapeños for an extra kick.
Serve warm with tortilla chips on the side for dipping.
