I love this recipe because it is so simple and fully customizable. You can add more or less of anything to suit your taste, like if you prefer spicy, add 1/2tsp cayenne to give it a little kick, substitute the chili powder and cumin with a packet of taco seasoning. And you can multiply the recipe and freeze in 1-2cup portions for quick use in the future :ohyeaah

these are very good! the family loved them. i havnt made these in a long long time.. but finally had the time! :)

I thought I had refried beans and well I didn’t and the recipe I was making called for it, so I came up with this... and because I was already using taco seasoning for the dish I was making I added it to the beans too. I was making my beans dip and I didn’t have the main ingredient lol.... this recipe turned out awesome and I might be making my refried beans this way for now on, way better than the can stuff, and so easy.

Got this recipe from my mother-in-law who is from Guadalajara Mexico. She converted the traditional "lard" recipe to olive oil. These are better than any restaurant I have been to. Way better than canned and so cheap to make. Full of iron and healthy carbs.

This is, by far, the easiest way to make homemade refried beans. It does take some planning ahead, but for the most part, this recipe is very hands off. These are creamy and nicely seasoned. They're not spicy, so long as you remove the seeds from the jalapeno. Feel free to substitute the pinto beans for black beans to mix things up.

This is a simple, healthy and delicious recipe. The kids love to pile them onto tacos and arepas for a high protein, vegetarian delight.

This is a recipe originally taken from Leslie Koehn’s Brazilian Beans, but I altered it through trial and error to fit my needs. This resulted in a mix of healthy and delicious ingredients that will put any restaurant’s refried beans to shame.Note: After you learn to make it, neither restaurant nor store bought refried beans will ever taste the same again as your taste buds will only demand the rich flavors that only this very own dish can provide!

DOUBLE-RICH BROTH NOTE: The secret to the awesome flavor of this dish is the broth they're cooked in. Whenever I make a pot roast or shredded beef in the slow cooker, I save all the extra broth, which is concentrated, that comes from cooking them; vacuum seal it and keep frozen until I've enough to make these delicious refried beans. Store-bought broth just won't do! Try my beans and you'll agree they're well worth the extra effort!

Let’s face it. Canned refried beans are awful. But, unless you have time to spend a couple days making refried beans from scratch, these are the best and in only 10-15 mins. Taste very close to those you get in SoCal Mexican restaurants. #mycookbook

You can make authentic traditional mexican refried beans from pinto beans or black turtle beans. Pinto beans take 13 hours, black beans take 2 1/2 hours.

I dont have an instant pot, but I saw you could cook beans in it and was intrigued. I pulled out the rice cooker to see what I could do and was pleasantly surprised. Made some delicious bean and cheese burritos.
