UNFRIED REFRIED BEANS
"Refried beans were a staple in our home when I was growing up, but the dish my dad made called for crisp bacon and bacon fat," writes Michelle Martinez of Albany, New York. "Being health-conscious, I lightened up the recipe and found that it remained as tasty as I remember from my childhood.

[email protected]These beans were okay. They were a little bland, but they had a good texture. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

[email protected]These beans were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

[email protected]I'm so glad I found this recipe! I've been looking for a healthy alternative to refried beans, and these fit the bill perfectly. They're low in fat and calories, and they're still packed with flavor. I'll definitely be making these again.

[email protected]These beans were good, but not great. They were a little too bland for my taste, and they didn't have the creamy texture that I was expecting. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]I made these beans last night and they were a hit! My whole family loved them. They were so easy to make, and they tasted just like the refried beans that I grew up eating. I will definitely be making these again and again.

[email protected]These beans were amazing! I've never had refried beans that didn't come from a can before, and I was really impressed. They were so flavorful and creamy, and they had the perfect amount of spice. I will definitely be making these again.
