Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a medium skillet, cook the ground beef until cooked through, breaking it up as it cooks.
While the beef cooks, beat the cream cheese and the taco seasoning together in a large bowl.
Stir in the refried beans and the green chiles. Add 3/4 of the Cheddar and 3/4 of the Pepper Jack, then the cooked ground beef. Stir to combine.
Pour the mixture into a baking dish. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly, 20-30 minutes.
Top with chopped cilantro before serving. Serve with tortilla chips.

Expert Tips

Top this beef bean dip with sliced green onions for even more fresh color and flavor.
Make it your own! Instead of beef, try using ground turkey or ground pork for this bean dip. Just be sure to use a nonstick pan to brown your meat of choice.
For a pretty presentation, make this Mexican dip with ground beef and refried beans in one dish! Brown the beef in a large cast iron skillet and use the same skillet to bake the dip.
