This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time. Other than that, the recipe was great. The beans were so creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

This recipe was a disappointment. The beans were mushy and the flavor was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right. I won't be making this recipe again.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some extra spices to give it some flavor. I also found that the beans were a bit too soft. I think I would cook them for less time next time.
