Ingredients
  

For the Base

  • 16 oz refried beans canned or homemade for richer flavor
  • 10 oz diced tomatoes with green chiles adds flavor kick
  • 1 to 2 tbsp taco seasoning to enhance flavor profile

For the Guacamole Layer

  • 3 medium avocados for creamy texture
  • 1.5 tbsp lime juice to prevent browning

  • Mash the avocados in a separate bowl with the lime juice, cilantro, and garlic salt. Mix until you achieve your desired consistency, then spread this guacamole evenly over the bean layer.
  • Stir the sour cream until smooth. Then, spread it into an even layer over the guacamole.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the sour cream. Top this layer with the diced Roma tomatoes, black olives, and green onions.
