Things you'll need:
8oz. package of cream cheese
One can refried beans
Salsa
Cheddar cheese
Tortilla chips
In the bottom of a shallow dip/casserole type dish, spread an even layer of cream cheese. Use the whole package. Your dish should be about twelve inches in diameter if it's round, or maybe 9 x 12 rectangular. Somewhere around there. This ain't rocket science.
Then spread on the refried beans. Ideally you won't have more beans that cream cheese, but it's okay if you do. Next put on a layer of salsa. Now, personally, I don't like salsa, so I just leave it out, but most people like it okay. Then you go ahead and put on the cheddar. You don't need too much, but enough to melt and make a seal over everything. If you want, you can add some mozzerella.
Heat it up. Put it in the oven at 400 degrees until the cheese melts. You don't want it to brown though. Or you can microwave it just as easily. Usually four minutes is good, check the cheese, and then give it another minute or so.
Then you've got this dip stuff. Eat it with tortilla chips, or even those large corn chips. Don't burn your mouth.
I had planned an audio post, but Audioblogger is being mean.

I would love to make this recipe - truly I would - but we don't have refried beans here. What *ARE* they?
Your recipes are SO not international: refried beans, American cheese....
How about a nice kangaroo tail soup? Or filet au possum, or even koala patties. Just for we antipodeans. (Well, I'm probably the only one, and I can't cook, but it would amuse me, and keep you busy for awhile).
Yours sincerely,
A frustrated cook
