If you have ever wondered how to make how to make refried beans, this recipe makes about 6 cans worth. Some of the beans can be pureed to be used as “refried” beans and some can be left whole and stored to use in burritos, salads, or other recipes. Use the refried beans in burritos, quesadillas, nachos, or as a dip for tortilla chips or vegetables.
This delightful salad is spa-healthy and yet satisfying enough for hearty eaters!
This is a beautiful, colorful hearty, healthy soup that’s easy to prepare as long as you don’t mind a little chopping (make sure your chef’s knife is sharpened!). Mary Anne Hoffman, who won first place for it at a soup contest in the Town of Chevy Chase, was generous enough share the recipe with us. If you’re a meat lover, you can add 1/2 lb. of browned bulk sausage when you add the beans.
