This is a favorite at my family gatherings. I also found it to be too salty so I only use 1 tblsp. of the taco seasoning, & I use sour cream instead of cream cheese. I sometimes sprinkle chopped scallions on the top with the cheese, tomatoes & olives. This is best when made the day ahead to let the flavors blend. Just wait until serving to add the lettuce & toppings. |

Not the greatest in the world. The refried bean and seasoning mix was to thick and had a powdery feel to it when eaten. I had a couple of people coment that the cream cheese was to much and maybe next time to use sour cream. I thought it would have been better with all the good reviews. |

This dip was okay. What ruined it for me was that the bean mixture was salty. I don't remember what brand taco seasoning I used, but I'm guessing that was the culprit. Next time I will buy a low sodium taco mix. I made it for a potluck at work. People ate it and said it was good. But for me, with the combination of a tortilla chip- which is usually salty too, it was just too much. |

I've been making variations of this dip on and off for years and always end up coming back to it. Its always a hit. Because the presentation is half the impact, I make this dip in a clear glass deep dish pie plate. It also helps to keep everything from going over the side. |

This was really good! I made this for Cinco de Mayo and we had it for lunch. There were 3 of us and I used baked tostito's scoops with it. We still have half of it left. This makes a pretty large platter. Great party food, would feed a lot of people as a dip. |

I made this recipe for the first time recently to take to a get-together for my husband's family. Not having been in the family for very long I wasn't sure just how well it would be received since I don't know their likes and dislikes. I knew my husband would like it, so I was hoping that they would too.
It was a BIG hit! They all liked it and were asking me for the recipe..of course I told them that I got it from my Betty Crocker recipe box.
I highly recommend this recipe to anyone looking for an easy to fix appetizer that can easily turn into a meal. |

BIG HIT! This was preferred over Artichoke dip. I made this a day ahead, sealed, stored in fridge. Used whipped cream cheese for easier spreading. REMEMBER: presentation is the half of it...make sure your colored foods are layered & not together. |

This recipe is a hit! I use half cream cheese and half sour cream. I put a Hidden Valley spicy fiesta packet in the cream cheese mixture instead of taco seasoning in the beans. It always disappears at my get togethers. Sometimes I omit the lettuce, if there are leftovers for snacking later, the lettuce gets too mushy. |

I am a ultra beginner-level cook, but this is something I can make easily and have it turn out very well. I use vegetarian refried beans and also add in a layer of guacamole and sour cream. I have also substituted sour cream for the cream cheese. Also a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles or jalapenos works nicely in lieu of salsa. |
