I made these beans in a slow cooker and they were amazing! The tortilla cheese crust was the perfect finishing touch.

These beans were a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt next time.

These beans were a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and they were much better.

I'm not a big fan of pinto beans, but these were really good! The tortilla cheese crust was the best part.

These beans were really good! I used a vegan tortilla and it worked great. The cheese crust was a bit crumbly, but it was still delicious.

These beans were easy to make and they turned out great! I used a store-bought tortilla and it worked perfectly. The cheese crust was bubbly and golden brown.

I made these beans for my family and they loved them! The crust was crispy and cheesy, and the beans were flavorful and tender.
