Ingredients

  • 1 (15 ounce) can refried beans
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning (your choice, I use Penzy's)
  • 1 pound ground meat (beef or chicken, your choice)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder (again your choice of brands) mixed into 1/2 cup water, chicken broth or beef broth (it's important to dissolve the chili powder in the liquid to make sure that it's evenly distributed)
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes with green chilis, diced
  • 2 cups cheese, shredded, I use a mixture of cheddar & Jack
  • Black olives, sliced
  • Tortilla chips for garnish
