Main Ingredients

16 oz Cream Cheese softened
1 packet Taco Seasoning
16 oz Sour Cream
1 cup Salsa (mild, medium, or hot depending on preference)

1/2 cup Black Olives sliced
Green Onions chopped (for garnish)
Tortilla Chips triangle shaped, for tombstones

Method

In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and taco seasoning. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Spread the refried beans evenly across the bottom of a large serving dish or platter.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the refried beans.
Add the sour cream.
Spread salsa evenly over the cream cheese layer.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the salsa.
Arrange the sliced black olives to resemble "dirt" or scattered debris.
Insert the triangle tortilla chips vertically into the dip to resemble tombstones.
Sprinkle chopped green onions around the "tombstones" and edges of the dip. You can add lettuce too!
Cover the dip and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve cold with extra tortilla chips for scooping.
