Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and taco seasoning. Use a hand mixer or whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Spread the refried beans evenly across the bottom of a 9x13 inch serving dish or glass baking dish.
Layer the cream cheese and sour cream mixture evenly over the refried beans using a spatula to smooth it out.
Sprinkle the diced jalapeño evenly over the cream cheese layer for added heat.
Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese evenly across the surface of the dip.
Add a layer of diced cherry tomatoes, followed by the sliced black olives, and finish with the chopped green onions.
If desired, sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro on top for a burst of color and flavor.
Cover the dip with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Serve with tortilla chips on the side for dipping, and enjoy!
