Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz canned refried beans
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 4 oz diced green chilies (optional)
- 2 stalks green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- 1 medium diced tomatoes (for garnish)
- 1 bag tortilla chips (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the refried beans, softened cream cheese, sour cream, and taco seasoning mix. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and 1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese to the mixture, and stir to incorporate evenly.
If using, fold in the diced green chilies for an extra burst of flavor.
Transfer the bean mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread it evenly into a flat layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese and 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the top.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
Remove the dip from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions and diced tomatoes for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve warm with tortilla chips for dipping. Enjoy!
