Tips
For a smoother bean layer, you can mash the refried beans with a fork or potato masher before heating.
Ensure the bean layer is cooled before adding the guacamole to prevent it from becoming warm and mushy.
If you prefer a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the bean mixture or use a spicier taco seasoning.
