    Solid refried bean recipe. I used pinto beans for this.

    So much tastier than typical "refried" beans. Made this with black beans as a side to fajitas. Also added some chopped cilantro and minced lemon pepper.

    This is what you would expect for basic "refried" beans. I used canned pintos and lard. They're tasty, but any leftover bits in the pan turn hard and crusty if you don't put them away promptly.
