🧾 Ingredients
- Vegan cream cheese: I prefer thick, dense vegan cream cheese like Tofutti or Daiya. Use your favorite brand. You could also use homemade vegan cream cheese.
- Refried beans: I used refried beans with spices to add some flavor. You could also use refried black beans.
- Guacamole: I used homemade guacamole, but you could also use store-bought.
- Salsa: You could use either homemade restaurant-style salsa or store-bought.
- Vegan cheddar cheese: Use your favorite brand or leave it off.
- Kalamata olives: You could also use green olives.
- Green onions: Adds a slightly pungent flavor.
- Cilantro: Adds flavor. You could also use more green onions if you don't like cilantro.
