  • For a creamy texture, use a food processor or blender to puree the beans until smooth.
  • If you prefer a chunky texture, mash the beans with a potato masher or fork until they reach your desired consistency.
  • Season the beans to taste with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve refried beans as a side dish, topping, or filling for tacos, burritos, tostadas, and other Mexican dishes.
