Wash the green onions and chop them, discarding the white part.

Take refried beans and mush them down in a glass dish using a soft spatula, creating an even layer against the glass.

If needed, use a second can of refried beans to ensure a thick layer and smooth it out with a spatula.

Add a layer of guacamole on top of the refried beans, using a different spatula if desired, and ensure it is thick enough.

Spread sour cream on top of the guacamole, using two containers if necessary for a thicker layer.

Consider adding ranch powder to the sour cream for extra flavor if desired.

Layer sliced black olives on top of the sour cream.

Finish with a layer of sharp cheese on top of the black olives, ensuring it looks colorful.
