Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 16 ounces refried beans
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup salsa
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup (shredded) romaine lettuce
• 2 medium (diced) tomatoes
• 1 cup (sliced) black olives
• 3 stalks (sliced) green onions
• 1 bag (for serving) tortilla chips

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until fully browned, breaking it up into crumbles. Drain excess grease.

Step 2

Add the taco seasoning to the cooked ground beef, following the packet instructions to combine with water. Stir and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

Spread the refried beans evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch serving dish or casserole dish to create the first layer.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to blend the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Spread this mixture as the second layer over the refried beans.

Step 5

Top the cream cheese layer with an even layer of salsa, spreading it out gently with a spoon.

Step 6

Add the taco-seasoned ground beef as the next layer, evenly distributing it across the dish.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the ground beef layer, creating a generous cheese layer.

Step 8

Garnish the dip with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, and sliced green onions for the final, colorful layer.

Step 9

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the layers set.

Step 10

Serve the Touchdown Taco Dip with tortilla chips for dipping, and enjoy!
