Using a pie pan or 6x6 casserole dish, smooth out the room temperature vegan cream cheese onto the bottom on the pie pan. Make sure it is an even spread. The back of a spoon works well for this.
Spread the can of refried beans on top of the cream cheese. It is okay if it gets a little mixed in with cream cheese, but try your best to keep it separated by not pressing too hard. Make sure it is an evenly spread.
Pour the salsa on top and spread it evenly on top of the beans.
Sprinkle your cheese on top to cover the top entirely.
Bake for 25 minutes. Enjoy!
