This party classic stacks up beautifully, layer by layer, into a cool, creamy, endlessly scoopable dip. Seasoned refried beans form a hearty base, spiked with cumin, garlic powder, and chili powder for a warm, smoky backbone. A big swath of chunky, lime-bright guacamole comes next, followed by a spoonful of fresh salsa or pico de gallo for a juicy, tangy pop. Sliced black olives and a generous scatter of green onions finish things off with color, crunch, and briny bite in every forkful. Chilled until the layers set, it slices clean and holds its shape when you dig in with a tortilla chip. It's a crowd-pleasing spread that fits right into a vegan lineup, and it disappears fast at any gathering.
