Instructions

  1. Combine beans, shortening, and milk in a pot over medium heat. Stir vigorously with a fork or wire whisk until silky smooth. Add cheese and let it melt before serving. Enjoy with warm tortillas or tortilla chips.

Notes

  • STORE. Keep these best refried beans in an airtight container in the fridge, or a bowl covered tightly with plastic wrap for 3-4 days.
  • FREEZE. For longer storage, freeze for several months. To reheat, thaw, put in a saucepan, set the stove to low heat, and stir until heated through.
