Refried Black Beans


Thinking of Cinco de Mayo, I had to post something to celebrate!!!
I serve this as a side dish with grilled chicken, with corn chips or veggies. I hope you love it as much as my husband does!
  • 2 cans of organic black beans with liquids
  • 3 -4 scallions with tops, finely minced
  • 6 cloves of garlic
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 2-3 Tablespoons of ground cumin
  • 2-3 tablespoons of Chile powder
  • ¼ cup of chopped cilantro
  • Salt & pepper
  • Extra virgin olive oil
Sauté onions & garlic in oil until translucent. Add pepper flakes, cumin, chile powder, salt & pepper & stir in for about 2 minutes. Add beans & liquid to the rest of the ingredients. Continue stirring until liquid reduces & beans become thicker & the consistently you like. Remove from burner & fold in cilantro.


Ole!
