Refried Beans
Add a little spice to the beans by throwing in a bit of jalepeno. You can also bulk up the flavor by adding 1 teaspoon of dried oregano and 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
Total time: 20 min
Servings: 2
- 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
- 1/2 c. Onions, diced
- 2 tsp. Garlic Cloves, chopped
- 2 tsp. Chili Powder
- 15 oz. Canned Pinto Beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 c. Water
- 1 tbsp. Limes, juiced
- 1/8 tsp. Salt & Black Pepper
- In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes, or until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Sprinkle on the chili powder and cook for another minute.
- Add the beans and water to the pot and bring it all to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture for 4–5 minutes, until about half the water has evaporated or been absorbed.
- Remove the pot from the heat and mash the beans using a potato masher.
- Mix the lime juice into the beans, give them a taste, and season them with salt and pepper as needed.
