Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Spread a thin layer of refried beans over the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.

Top Layer:

Add the final noodle layer. Spread sour cream evenly over the top, then sprinkle with remaining cheese and chopped red onion.

Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
