- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup diced tomatoes, drained

Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the refried beans and taco seasoning. Mix thoroughly and spread the mixture evenly onto the bottom of a 9x13-inch serving dish or similar-sized platter.
In a separate bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and well combined. Carefully spread this mixture on top of the refried beans layer.
Spread the salsa evenly over the cream cheese and sour cream mixture.
Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheddar cheese over the salsa, covering it completely.
Add a layer of shredded lettuce on top of the cheese, followed by a layer of diced tomatoes.
Evenly distribute the sliced black olives over the tomatoes, and finally, sprinkle the sliced green onions across the top of the dip.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with a bag of tortilla chips on the side for dipping.
