Refried Beans?

Question

What are some good things ta make with Refried Beans?

Answer 1

My fave! It's such a versatile ingredient that I believe you can add it to just about any Mexican dish and have a winner. The bean stands alone, as is, and you can't really go wrong with whatever you do with it.

Answer 2

Yum, Tostadas, if you don't have the ready made ones, you can take 3 inches of oil in a skillet and put the heat to low-medium (don't want to get spattered). Place a corn tortilla in the center of the already heated oil and press down with a spatula. Flip it over and do the same to the other side, press it down until it seems crisp. Spread the beans on top, and top it off with shredded lettuce, tomato, cheese, and maybe salsa maybe avocado.

You can also do something we call Birotes. Take a bread (preferrably but not necessarily) a big menudo bread (they're called francesitos or birote bread) they look like the bread used at subway but fatter. Take out the inner bread to make room for the beans. Spread beans inside, add cheese and some jalapenos.

Answer 4

I like bean enchiladas. Get some enchilada sauce and coat the bottom of the pan. Fill tortillas with refried beans and roll up. Coat the top of the tortillas with more sauce and cover with cheese. Bake in oven until cheese is melted and sauce bubbly.

Answer 6

Tacos, burritos, dip, double decker tacos. There's lots of good stuff.

I like refried beans. Which is why I want to try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good, and we're just wasting time.

Answer 8

My favortie thing to eat made with beans is Tostadas. I've seen them being made with meat before but i prefer the veggie ones. It's like a flat taco. You get corn tortillas and fry them flat and put beans on it, then whatever you want. I eat it with lettece, tomato, cheese, sour cream, salsa. Very good.
