  2. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in 1 packet (1 ounce) chili seasoning, 1 (15-ounce) can of refried beans, 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa, 1/4 cup chopped green chilies (optional), 1/4 teaspoon cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.
  4. Heat through for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated thoroughly and the flavors have melded.
  5. Serve the beef mixture generously over a large platter of tortilla chips.
  6. Top with 1/2 cup sliced ripe olives, 1/2 cup chopped green onions, and 1 cup chopped tomatoes. Add extra salsa, sour cream, or shredded cheese as desired!
