Healthier refried beans - very small amount of salt compared to canned refried beans. Also, the cost per cup is much cheaper too!
Easy crock pot refried beans .....from family recipe, family favorite
Low Fat - I take an entire bag of beans, soak them overnight, rinse them well and drain, then portion out into 2 cup containers, fill enough water to cover and freeze for easy prep later on.
I've been trying to come up with some VEGAN Cheezy Beans and I think I've got it. BEWARE: These are pretty spicy! You can tame it down if you need to...
I like to use Lard or bacon fat because it just tastes so much better, but you can use whatever fat you want to.I like to serve this over brown rice with fat-free sour cream and chopped onions on top.

Yummm!
I took some help from the store here. It is important in our house to get as much nutrition from our meals as possible. Also to watch the sodium levels. To that end here is my modified black refried bean mixture.
This is a healthier version than most refried bean recipes. You can make this vegetarian by using all water.And the best part of all it cooks in the crockpot! This is adapted from allrecipes.com
Amazing vegetarian refried beans! I make them with just a little bit of oil, so the fat is very low. This takes about 5 hours to make, but it's worth it. I usually double or triple the recipe and keep it in the fridge so I don't have to make it as often. My husband makes burritos out of these and eats them like sandwiches.Adapted from an allrecipes.com recipe.
Small White Beans refried low fat
Once you have tried it you won't ever go back to rosarita.
Much better than refried beans... and much healthier, too!
Easy homemade refried beans. I use beans boiled from scratch to reduce sodium, but you are welcome to repleace with canned beans. To limit sodium, try Mrs. Dash and herbs for spices and limited salt.
I just made this up and the beans got mushed. They were pretty good, though.
for filling burritos, adding to quesadillas, or mixing with rice
"Refried beans are simple to make when cooked in a slow cooker. This recipe will yield flavorful, fat-free refried beans seasoned with garlic, jalapeno, and cumin."
Home-made beans are comforting, nutritious and not a big calorie hit. Don't forget the soaking step as it reduces cooking time and saves energy. This recipe is quite straightforward and it's never gone wrong for me :-)
Ever wonder what exactly goes into the refried beans you get at restaurants, or even in cans? Wonder no more.
Incredibly inexpensive and nutritious. Can make burritos for on the go lunches, can use for dip with veggies.
This is an adaption to Jillian Michael's "Drunken Beans" recipe from her book "Mastering Your Metabolism"
Serve this with my fajita chicken, some chopped tomatoes and avocado (or salsa and guacamole) and some corn tortillas.

Crockpot recipe. I "invented" this with NO saltpork or lard, in search of a lower sodium/fat "refried" bean --- and DH loved it!
You can make the beans as spicy or mild as you like, by adding more, less or no chili powder and cayenne pepper. Make sure to add the recommended amout of kosher salt, or else the recepie is very bland.
I love refried beans and figured out a way to enjoy them without feeling as guilty!
Refried black beans are a great side dish when you are wanting mexican food.
Made from dry beans, but you could use canned. NOn fat, quick to make, healthy, lots of fiber. Cheap, copious food. Makes 7 cups.

Good homemade beans.
This is a healthy alternative to add to your mexican dishes!
When I am in the mood for something a little bit mexican without being to naughty in the calorie department.I make this.It is a great energy boost.I like to eat this with Eat Smart Veggie chips. Yummy!
Authentic Mexican flavor without the fat. Yummy for a dip, side dish, or a burrito filling
empty one can dark red kidney and one can pinto beans into skillet. bring to a boil, turn down to medium low and simmer for 10 minutes.add 1 tsp bacon grease and simmer 10 more minutes.smash.
Actually these have a lower sodium content than indicated because I rinse the canned beans before using them.
Simmer these yummy beans all day in your slow cooker and they're ready to serve with cornbread for dinner!
Refried beans with a hint of bacon flavor
Delicious and Easy! It's super filling with lots of protein and fiber, and satisifies your need for cruncy, melty, chewy, cheesy.... instead of going to Taco Bell... This tastes just like Quizno's Alpine Chicken Sammies
Delicious and can be used for any refried beans recipe
A tasty alternative to meat
These beans use no lard to make them flavorful. You won't even miss the fat!
This is a fast and easy recipe to make. The ingredients can be kept on hand. The calorie and fat count can be reduced by using low fat or fat free cheese.
I choose this bean alternative since I am bloodtype B and not to eat pintos. Ok for A's and B's
my daily breakfast
This is a wonderful dish to serve with Spanish rice and fresh vegetables. I make it for my famiily and everyone loves it! There are NEVER any leftovers! Serving size is appx. 1/2 cup.
