I love refried beans but don't always have the time to work with dried beans. This recipe uses canned beans and still tastes like I spent all day on it. Sometimes I crumble bacon on top of the finished product.
Ingredients
- bacon grease: 2 Tbsp
- onion: 2 Tbsp (chopped)
- garlic: 1 tsp (minced)
- pinto beans, undrained: 1 can (15 ounce can)
- ground cumin: 0.25 tsp

Heat bacon grease in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot bacon grease until onions are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mash pinto beans and cumin into onion mixture using a potato masher until reaching your desired consistency. Cook and stir bean mixture until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
