I was just about to post this recipe and found that you already had. I love these refried beans. I also like to make these and NOT mash them, and am left with tasty whole pinto beans as a great side. Also, these freeze and re-heat well, just add a bit more water to help loosen them up. - 5/10/09

This is awesome! I love refried beans, and you cannot tell these have no fat in them. I used half chicken broth as the recipe suggests, and doubled the recipe. I had them with tortillas and fried eggs last night, and tonight we are having them with Spanish brown rice. I plan on freezing the rest - 2/25/14

Love these and make them all the time. We skip the jalepenos, and up the cumin a smidge. - 2/4/13

My husband hates beans but loves this. I am addicted to mashed potatoes and these have the same texture so they're a great protein-packed substitute. These are so good, I have to stop myself from eating the whole batch. - 5/12/10
