Ingredients

4-6 servings
  1. 2 tbsp.butter, divided
  2. 1/2yellow onion, diced
  3. 1jalapeno, seeds removed and diced (optional)
  4. 4 clovesgarlic, minced
  5. 2 cans(each 15 oz.) pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  6. 1/2 cupunsalted chicken or veggie broth
  7. 1 tsp.chipotle chili powder
  8. 1 tsp.ground cumin
  9. 1/2 tsp.oregano
  10. Juice from 1/2 lime
  11. 1/4 tsp.salt
  12. 1/8 tsp.pepper

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium saucepan, melt 1 tbsp. of the butter over med-high heat. Once its melted, add the onion and jalapeno (if using). Cook, stirring often, until they're softened, about 5 minutes. Then stir in the garlic and cook until it's fragrant.

  2. 2

    Stir in the beans, broth, chili powder, cumin and oregano and let this mixture come up to a simmer. Once it begins to bubble, let it simmer for about 5 or so minutes, then remove the pan from the heat. Either use a masher to roughly mash the beans, or use a food processor for a smoother consistency.

  3. 3

    Once the beans are mashed, season with the lime juice, salt and pepper. Then stir in the additional tbsp. of butter until it's all melted and incorporated in. That's it! Serve it up with some yummy toppings.

I love to bake and to try out new recipes! I'm always on the lookout for simple dinners for busy weeknights. A lot of the recipes I post on here are ones I've found on Pinterest or from different bloggers, and that I've tried and really enjoyed, but I always reference to where I got the recipe from in the recipe description and the pictures are my own. If there's no source listed, then it's a rare recipe that I came up with. I have two wonderful kids and I hope to pass on my love of cooking and baking to them.
