Ingredients:
Refried beans
Taco seasoning
Sour cream
Mozzarella cheese
Tomatoes
Black Olives
Guacamole
In a bowl, combine the refried beans and taco seasoning. In a 9x13 baking dish, start layering your ingredients. Spread the bean mixture along the bottom of the dish. I suggest using a silicone spatula for this step so that you can easily spread the bean dip mixture. Continue layering your ingredients by spreading a layer of guacamole on top of the bean mixture. Then layer the sour cream. Use the remaining ingredients to create a flag pattern on top of the sour cream layer. Used the diced tomatoes for the red stripes and the mozzarella cheese for the white stripes. You'll use the black olives for the "blue" stars. Cover and let sit in the fridge for at least an hour before serving.
This is a fun cooking activity to have your kids help with and get creative in making the flag.
Enjoy!
