Making refried beans from scratch takes just a smidge more work than opening a can of store bought beans, but the results are FAR tastier. Next time you are at the grocery store, skip the canned stuff–ick–and try this recipe instead. It has so much flavor and it will have you going back for seconds! Or maybe even thirds (I won’t tell!).
I'm a professional photographer and storyteller based in Portland, Oregon. I'm also a globetrotting foodie and culinary explorer. I'm obsessed with bold seasonings and take pride in my ever-growing spice collection. As a self-taught home chef/baker, I occasionally share the kitchen with two amazing sous chefs (my husband and young daughter). When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me planning my next flavor adventure, whether it be on the road or in my kitchen.
