Refried Beans

Refried Bean is a staple in Mexican and Latin American cooking made by mashing cooked beans and lightly frying or simmering them into a creamy spread; it’s commonly served as a side, taco or burrito filling, or dip. Nutritionally, it’s a good source of plant protein and is notable for providing about 6.2g of fiber per 100 g, while remaining relatively low in fat. Because it delivers both filling fiber and quality plant protein, it’s a satiating, nutrient-dense choice that fits well into balanced meals.
