Spooky layered dip with 'grass' and 'tombstones' for a festive Halloween party.
Ingredients:
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 1 (8 inch) flour tortilla, cut into strips resembling 'tombstones'
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter, or as needed
  • 1 pinch chili powder, or as needed
  • 2 (14.25 ounce) cans vegetarian refried beans
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 bunches green onions, chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) for the perfect cooking temperature.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the onion in vegetable oil until softened and slightly browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add ground beef, taco seasoning, and garlic. Cook until beef is browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Stir in water and simmer until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Let it cool slightly before serving.
  • Lay out the sliced tortillas on a shallow baking sheet.
  • Place tortillas in the preheated oven until they become crispy and sturdy enough to stand upright in the dip, approximately 5 minutes per side. Brush the toasted tortillas with melted butter and then sprinkle with chili powder, tapping off any extra powder.
  • Start by layering refried beans in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Combine sour cream and salsa in a small bowl, then spread it over the refried beans. Next, sprinkle the ground beef mixture over the salsa-sour cream layer. Layer on the black beans and then spread Cheddar cheese. Finish off by adding a layer of green onions and cilantro to mimic grass, and arrange tortilla 'tombstones' on top.
