Does anyone have a recipe for....

refried beans?

I really dislike refried beans from a can so I want to make some from scratch. Does anyone have a recipe for that?

You can google some.

I just boil pinto beans and the throw them in the food processor. I put a few mild green chilies in as well as some of the bean water to thin it out.

My mom always threw them in the pressure cooker to get them to cook faster.

I usually soak them over night then use my crock pot and cook them all day. I don't make them often.

That is how my family makes it, I would get you a recipe but it would be a bit hard to explain since I'm Hispanic and we use a lot of seasoning and stuff.
BTW Idk where you are from lol.

Have you tried the AMY's organic brand?? I'm not a big fan and these are really good! Or is it just the canned flavor?

I think I found a pretty decent recipe on allrecipes.com . I just worry about making stuff if I haven't made it before cuz i hate getting to the end and it's horrid. =]

Thanks girls!

LOVE that website....I find all kinds of crazy stuff on there, then look at the reviews and comments for additional ideas. Found a recipe for round steak last night (trying to get rid of it)...tasted like pot roast by the end of it!

Isn't tha site the best? =] I love reading peoples comments because they should know since they've made it! Last year I found this amazing recipe for pumpkin bread and I'm so excited to make it again. I'm trying to hold off though because it's holiday food, so it's fattening. =] Otherwise I'd make it every week! =]

Do you have a link to that recipe? I'm not much of a pumpkin fan unless it's done just right...my MIL's was the best but she took it to the grave.
