List of Ingredients


2 8-oz cans crescent rolls
16 oz can refried beans
1 C sour cream
2 Tbsp. taco seasoning mix
1 1/2 C shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Recipe

Recipe



Unroll dough into 4 long rectangles. Place crosswise in ungreased
10 x 15" jelly roll pan.
Press over bottom and 1" up sides of pan to form crust. Firmly press perforations to seal.
Bake at 375° for 12 minutes, until golden brown. Cool completely.
Spread refried beans over crust. In a small bowl, combine sour cream and taco seasoning mix; stir well and spread over bean layer.
Sprinkle cheese, onion, tomatoes and olives (and green pepper, if using) evenly over sour cream.
Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour to blend flavors before cutting into squares.
secret to use with this recipe. After browning the crust & allowing it to cool, if you spread on a REALLY thin layer of margarine, the sour cream mixture won't make the crust soggy, even after being in the fridge.
