Notes
-
- Mixing the taco seasoning into both the cream cheese and beans ensures that they provide both creaminess and flavor!
- You can top the bean dip with some freshly chopped scallions after it's done baking for a pop of color.
-
- Other layers can be added to your Mexican Bean Dip including ground beef, sour cream, and scallions.
-
- Creamy guacamole, pickled jalapeños, and chorizo beans are also great additions.
-
- If you can handle extra spicy food, add a final layer of my hot chili sauce.
-
- Store leftover bean dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
