Nutrition & Calorie Comments  

I love this and make it all the time but use fat free sour cream since I end up eating more chips.... but I also add finely diced fresh jalepeno for the kick : )	Submitted by: AGENTVEGAS (7/16/12) report inappropriate
@ Moms100 that was my first thought, too much dip for so few chips, but still sounds yummy. I would probably skip the blackbeans since you have the refried, and to get more chips and fewer calories, use corn tortillas not flour?	Submitted by: MONNIEK (2/24/12) report inappropriate
Greek Yogurt is a much tastier and healthier substitute in this particular case. Some jalepenos blended into the yogurt layer make this sublime. If using commercial taco seasoning, make it ahead to allow dehydrated onions to reconstitute. I'd rather skip the chips to add low fat cheddar shreds.

My go to replacements for refried beans and even low fat sour cream are pureed canned beans and non fat yogurt that I've drained with cheesecloth or a coffee filter in a collander. Sometimes put a plate on top to drain faster. Determine consistency by how long you drain it - few min. to hours.	Submitted by: GRANNYSUSAN (1/8/12) report inappropriate
It looks good but the sodium is too high	Submitted by: BARLOWS1 (1/5/12) report inappropriate
This would be great with greek plain non fat yogurt instead. Yum!	Submitted by: ALISPARKY (2/2/11) report inappropriate
This sounds like my layer dip too. Yummy! I do put black olives in for a healthy fat. It helps to melt the other fat out of our bodies. I learned this from the "Flat Belly Diet Book" I am so glad to have olives, avacados, and nuts back again. Yea!	Submitted by: LADYBLUE932 (8/20/10) report inappropriate
I make something similar, but I add cumin and lime juice to the black beans, I don't use any refried beans, and I keep the olives. They aren't empty calories - olives are good for you! But I don't use can - I chop up kalamata myself. YUM	Submitted by: GOGOSHIRE (8/12/10) report inappropriate
Another suggestion would be to use reduced-sodium black beans to further lower the sodium. I also might use just a little low-fat or fat-free cheese to get some of that cheese flavor I love!	Submitted by: SNARDEESNIFF (8/10/10) report inappropriate
