“Un” Refried Black Beans

1. 1

   Put all the ingredients in a pot on the stove and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and put a lid on the pot about half-cocked so that steam can escape. Simmer for 20 minutes. Remove beans with a slotted spoon, reserving the liquid.

2. 2

   At this point you can do one of several things: you can mash beans with a potato masher adding back liquid until they are the desired consistency or (and this is what I do) put the beans in your food processor and pulse, adding liquid until they are the desired consistency.

3. 3

   This can be eaten as a side dish, or you can put them on tostadas with pulled pork, in burritos or pretty much whatever your heart desires. My husband was a die hard refried bean (pintos) until he tried these! Now he's a black bean convert!
