homemade refried beans.....

My lovely waiter from this weekend at Lake Austin Spa gave me an amazing recipe for the best and healthiest re-fried black beans!! Plus it is SUPER easy.


Ingredients: Dried black beans 1lb, 1 onion, 1 garlic bunch, salt and pepper

-Before you start your day or head to work put your beans, water, whole onion and whole garlic cloves into the crock pot. Set on low for 8 hrs.
-30minutes before its finished add salt and pepper
-Then remove and chop onion in half, add half the onion back into the beans
-Remove garlic cloves leaving one in the pot (any more and they will be to garlicy)
-If you want your beans a bit thicker maybe remove some water, or leave it be. Then either with your hand puree or blender, blend all the ingredients. 

WOW!! That easy and now you have a VAT of re-fried black beans. I put mine in the fridge as is, he did suggest putting them in a skillet and cooking them for a bit, but I found no need for this.

** have these beans in an egg white veggie filled omelet, as a side with lunch, or a Mexican dinner
