Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×9-inch or 2-quart baking dish.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in taco seasoning and 1/4 cup water. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, refried beans, salsa, green chiles, 1 cup of shredded cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well blended.
Fold in the cooked meat mixture until evenly incorporated.
Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese evenly over the top.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
Remove from oven and garnish with optional toppings if desired.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced veggies.
