Super Bowl Bean Dip

I made this for our family SuperBowl Party, and everyone loved it. I was pretty proud of it, since I've never made a bean dip before and I was guessing on amounts.

Super Bowl Bean Dip

Ingredients:

1 cup sour cream
1 (1.25 oz) taco seasoning
1 (16 oz) can refried beans
1/2 lb ground beef
1 pkg italian sausage
1 or 2 avocados, diced
2 tbls lemon juice
1 tsp garlic salt
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup diced black olives
2 large tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
French baguette and/or tortilla chips

Directions:
1. In a skillet, brown the ground beef and italian sausage together till there is no pink.

2. While meat is browning, in a small mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and taco seasoning.

3. In a separate bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the sour cream mixture with the refried beans (this will thin out the beans a bit).

3. Spread bean mixture in the bottom of a oven safe serving dish. Layer with meat combo then the avocados. Sprinkle the lemon juice and garlic salt over the mixture. Spread the sour cream mixture over the avocados. Layer is monterey jack cheese over the sour cream, the cilantro over the cheese, the tomatoes over the cilantro, the olives over the tomatoes and finally sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the tomatoes.

4. Serve with either the baguette or the chips, both worked well.
