I made these last night for dinner. They were absolutely delicious. Homemade bean burritos definitely makes for an inexpensive meal. Thanks for sharing the recipe

Susie, I haven’t ever canned them and don’t know anything about it. (I haven’t ever canned any beans, period.) A good idea might be to go to Farm Bell Recipes and click on Recipe Requests in the menu bar and post a message asking about canning refried beans. Someone who knows more than me can answer you there!

Suzanne – have you ever canned this recipe? I have a bag of dry pintos I was going to cook and then pressure can, but I’m wondering if I can’t take the extra steps to actually make the refried beans THEN can them? Please feel free to email me – I think this is a pretty old thread. THANKS!

Just dropping a note to thank you for this recipe – for some reason, I always thought homemade refried beans were difficult and/or unhealthy. I just made these and they came out so amazing, buying a can of bland beans at the store just became totally impossible. YUM!

I am definitely making these tomorrow. I usually buy the organic refried beans in a can, but don’t like the expense. These will be much cheaper and, I suspect, taste better as well. Thanks Suzanne!

Refried beans are so healthy. With all the soluble fiber in beans, everyone can afford to cook the veggies with bacon fat. This is a wonderful recipe and we could all stand to eat more beans. Those who don’t like beans should add them slowly to their diet and develop a taste for them as they are cheap, healthy and can see us through hard times to come. Thanks, Suzanne! If you have more bean recipes, my family would love to try them.
