Here is a dish that is ever-so-popular at almost any get together... and there is a good reason for that. It tastes good. People like it. It's SO fast and easy to throw together - it's good to keep a can of refried beans on hand 'just in case'.
I have made this numerous times and of course - use what you have on hand and improvise if you know your family or friends don't like something.
Layered Taco Dip
1 can refried beans
1 can black beans
1 16 oz container of sour cream
1 c chopped lettuce
1/3 c chopped onions - your choice
1/2 to 1 jar of salsa
1 package of three cheese blend
chopped tomato
black and green olives
Spread the beans on a serving platter or covered pizza round and top with rinsed and drained black beans. You can bake at 325 degrees for about 10-15 minutes now - and top with the rest as a cold topping OR finish layering the ingredients (sour cream, onions, lettuce, salsa, cheese, tomato and olives) and heat it all. Serve with sturdy tortilla chips.
