While visiting at church Sunday we got on the topic of recipes...specifically slow cooker recipes. Oh how I LOVE using the slow cooker. Judy proceded to tell me she just made home made refried beans in the slow cooker. She gave me the basic idea of how to make them and so I coudn't wait to give it a try.
Ingredients:
1 lb bag of pinto beans
6 cups water (enough to cover the beans plus about 2 inches)
1 tsp salt
2 tsp pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic
Directions:
Rinse pinto beans thoroughly with cold water.
Mix in salt.
Transfer beans into slow cooker.
Add enough water to 2 inches above beans
add pepper, onions and garlic
Cook on High for 6-8 hours or until most of the water has been soaked up.
Use a masher to mash to a refried consistency. Serve warm.
