My Refried Beans Recipe is Better Than Yours
You will never buy canned again once you taste this delicious, refried beans recipe that is simple to prepare and loaded with flavor. This traditional side dish is a staple to serve up with all your Mexican recipes.
Refried beans, also known as frijoles refritos, are a popular Mexican dish consisting of cooked beans such as pinto or black beans that are mashed and fried in onions and melted in rendered bacon fat. While they are cooked twice, they are only fried one time.
While you can purchase these pre-made in a can, the flavors are much more complex when homemaking them. In addition, there are more opportunities to add different ingredients and flavors when making it from scratch.

How to Make Taco Bell's Refried Beans at home in under 30 minutes
To be clear, this NOT the way Taco bell makes their beans. They use raw beans, soak them and cook them in giant pressure cookers before they smash and refry them. This recipe just speeds that process up by about 2 days. The result is the same but this will cost about $1 more. I'll take that trade off any day! To make these beans vegan just use oil instead of butter and veggie stock instead of chicken stock obviously. The results are virtually identical. Enjoy!

1 15oz can pinto beans
