This is one of the best dips, the amounts listed is enough about 15-20 people but may be cut in half if desired. I have served this many times at my get togethers and everyone loves it - this may be prepared in advance up to step#8 refrigerated and baked later - see my Kittencal's Red Enchilada or Taco Sauce Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground beef |
2 fresh minced garlic cloves (optional) or 2 garlic powder (optional) |
1 large onion, chopped |
salt or seasoning salt |
1 (14 ounce) can refried beans |
2 (4 ounce) cans green chilies, drained and chopped |
3/4 lb monterey jack cheese (or to taste) or 3/4 lb mild cheddar cheese, finey shredded (or to taste) |
3/4 cup taco sauce (mild or spicy, i like the spicy!) |
1 large avocados or 1 (6 ounce) package frozen avocado dip |
1 1/4 cups sour cream |
3/4 cup black olives, sliced |
tostados or tortilla chips |
