Oil Free Refried Beans

Step 1

Add the four tablespoons of broth to a large skillet with the diced onion. Sauté until soft, approx. 4-5 minutes, adding more broth or water, if needed to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Then add the garlic and the spices, mix well and cook another 30 seconds.

Step 3

Next, add the pinto beans and the remaining 3/4 cup of broth to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes, until the liquid is mostly reduced. Turn off the heat and use a potato masher to mash most of the beans.

Step 4

Now add the cilantro, and lime juice, and mix well. Taste for salt and add if needed. (This will depend on the saltiness of your broth.)

Step 5

Use in dishes like burritos, tacos, fajitas, and more!
