Rosarita Low Fat Refried Black Beans, 16 oz

Why didn’t I find these wonderful Low fat refried beans decades ago? They are terrific ! I add them to soups to thicken and season them. I serve them as a side dish, often adding braised red onion or shallots. I’ve even used it as a base for salad dressing. It lasts in my refrigerator properly sealed a little over a week.

These are my favorite vegetarian refried beans. Yes, they look depressing straight from the can - stiff, dry, crumbly texture. Do not be dismayed. Empty them out into another container and add several big splashes of water (more than you think), and a couple tablespoons of oil (avocado or olive)... and stir until it becomes a nice creamy consistency, like what's pictured on the label. I also sprinkle in cumin and some combination of spicy taco seasoning (beware those with extra salt), onion, garlic, chili powder, etc. to jazz it up a bit. Delicious. And super easy to just reheat a little during the week for an quick bean burrito whenever you're starving. And then you're actually eating some filling protein, fiber, and nutrients instead of just carbs and cheese, which I am very guilty of doing when I'm in a rush!

The benchmark for relatively low-cost canned megacorp "refried" beans. I like all the Rosarita flavors, but the black beans are the tastiest in my opinion. You can be sure these were not grown sustainably, but if you're on a budget, they're good beans.

I love this refried type of beans I add it to my chili to thicking it up to make flour wraps with it and rice and split peas to it too. Different almost every time I make my chili like using kale and green peppers and red peppers some onions and garlic extra.

They are ok but not a favorite
