Enjoy these healthy refried black beans – absolutely delicious!!

Healthy Refried Black Beans Recipe

Keep this dish quick by using canned black beans, or soak dry black beans overnight beforehand (which would need some extra cooking time before pan frying). Once cooked, serve and garnish with your favorite toppings.

We love to use our healthy refried black beans in our 7 Layer Mexican Dip and as a side for any of our Mexican-themed dinners like our shredded chicken enchiladas!

*Omit the queso fresco for a vegan version.
