Instructions:
-
Preheat: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Layer Refried Beans: Spread half of the refried beans evenly in a 9×9 inch glass baking dish, creating the base layer for your dip.

Layer Salsa: Spoon half of the mild salsa on top of the olives, ensuring even coverage over the layer beneath.
-
Cheese Layer: Sprinkle half of the cheddar cheese and half of the Monterey Jack cheese over the salsa layer, creating a rich and gooey cheese blanket.
-
Repeat Layers: Repeat the layering process with the remaining ingredients, starting with the refried beans and ending with the cheese.
-
Bake: Place the assembled dip in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are golden brown.
-
Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the dip from the oven and garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a scattering of sliced green onions. Serve immediately with crispy tortilla chips for dipping.
