Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow or white onion (about 1/2 small onion)
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cans (15 ounces each) pinto beans, rinsed and drained, or 3 cups cooked pinto beans
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice (about 1/2 medium lime), to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and are turning translucent, about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, chili powder and cumin. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the drained beans and water. Stir, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low and remove the lid. Use a potato masher or the back of a fork to mash up about at least half of the beans, until you reach your desired consistency. Continue to cook the beans, uncovered, stirring often, for 3 more minutes.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste, and add more salt and lime juice if necessary. If the beans seem dry, add a very small splash of water and stir to combine. Cover until you're ready to serve.

Provided by Camille Beckstrand

Categories     Side Dish

Time 8h10m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 onion (peeled and halved)
3 cups dry pinto beans (rinsed)
¼-½ jalapeno pepper (fresh, seeded and chopped (I used about 1/4 because I wanted my kids to eat it and not think it was too hot))
2 Tablespoons minced garlic
3 teaspoons salt
1¾ teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoons ground cumin (optional)
5 cups water
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups salsa
2 cups shredded colby jack cheese
2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
8 ounces cream cheese (1 package)
16 ounces sour cream
2 Tablespoons chili powder
½ teaspoons ground cumin

Steps:

  • Place the onion, rinsed beans, jalapeno, garlic, salt, pepper, and cumin into a slow cooker. Pour in the water and chicken broth and stir to combine. Cook on High for 8 hours, adding more water as needed. Note: if more than 1 cup of water has evaporated during cooking, then the temperature is too high.
  • Once the beans have cooked, strain them, and reserve the liquid. Mash the beans with a potato masher, adding the reserved water as needed to attain desired consistency.
  • Mix ingredients with the beans and let cook a couple hours longer so flavors can blend.

Provided by Sheri Baby

Categories     Beans

Time 17m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (40 ounce) can pinto beans
1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro
1/2 teaspoon oregano flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 tablespoon of minced onion
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon of juice from jarred jalapeno
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup milk

Steps:

  • Take the can of beans and drain it until there is about 1/3 of the liquid left in the can. Pour into large nonstick skillet and add the olive oil and all the seasonings. Turn the burner up to high and stir everything until well mixed. Wait until the beans have come to a boil and then lower the heat to a little more than low.
  • Leave the beans simmering for about 15-20 minutes Once the liquid that we left in the beans starts to almost dry out completely time to add the milk. Take a potato masher and mash the beans until they are at the consistency that you prefer. I like to mash until I've mashed almost every last beans. Turn off the burner and they are ready to serve inside your favorite burrito or alongside your favorite mexican dish.
