Directions
Frijoles (Mexican Style Pinto Beans), Beans are a part of everday eating in the Southwest Frijoles are served either soupy in broth or mashed and fried (frijoles refritos- or refried beans) This mouthwatering recipe features both variations Tip: If you want the beans extra spicy, do not remove the seeds from the chiles Prep time does not include soaking From Ladies Home Journal , I made these tonite! We absolutely loved them great flavor and so easy I made them both ways, whole and refried The whole was good enough just to eat out of a bowl with nothing else The refried is perfect side for any Mexican dish This is a keeper!, I know this is probably a dumb question Do I follow the first recipe then if I want refried do the second
