Get geared up and make your hungry crew this yummy and simple baked taco dip (in fact, we’re pretty sure you’ll watch it disappear right from the snack table). It has all the favorite elements of tacos in a hearty, crowd-pleasing dip!
Baked taco dip is easy to make using simple ingredients.
If you love a dip that’s easy to layer in a casserole dish, this is it! My version of this dip starts with a layer of taco-seasoned ground meat that you can definitely prep ahead of time for convenience. Season beef with a store-bought packet or try our awesome homemade taco seasoning!
I’ve used the seasoned variety of refried beans because it adds such great flavor to the bean, sour cream, and cream cheese layer. Finish off with a layer of shredded cheese and then bake in the oven until melted and bubbling.
After baking, I topped with shredded lettuce and sliced olives for a full taco experience! Feel free to top with diced tomato or any other favorite add-ons!

What a winning appetizer!
Such a fun dip to make for football watching or really any other gathering or potluck. It’s full of flavor and melted cheese goodness, but it also has a texture that’s easy enough to dip a tortilla chip into and not have it break!
And this dip was the perfect size to use with my 2.5 quart classic blue and white cornflower CorningWare! 😍
