Santiago Vegetarian Refried Beans, Dehydrated Refried Pinto Beans with Whole Beans Mix, 1.86 Pound Pouch

These dried refried beans are great and easy to prepare. Since I can not eat the whole bag a one time I broke the grams down into individual portions so 96 grams of dried beans to one cup of boiling water wait about 20 minutes and they are ready to go. I plan to take them camping too.

I was very skeptical of making refried beans from a dry product, but I followed the directions, and the result was as good as I make from scratch! Delicious and great mouth feel (consistency). I'll bet some of my favorite Mexican restaurants are using this product.

These deyhdrated pinto beans are very convenient to have on hand, much better tasting than canned beans and easier than cooking pinto beans from scratch. The packaging is OK, though it would be nice to have a zip close seal for storing. I added quite a bit of seasoning and some fresh cilantro to make refried beans and they turned out very good. I would purchase this product again.

These beans are so delicious!! I usually make mine from dry beans since it’s a lot more cost-effective, but when I need them fast I want convenience. These the best tasting ones I found!!

Great product. Easy to fix and tastes like the real thing

I live alone and dont like canned re fried beans and dont wana make a big pot these are perfect to just make one portion when you want one and they taste homemade.

I'm basically a bean eater, living in the Sonoran desert and thriving for years on beans and tortillas, with little if any "distant thunder" of the gastro-intestinal sort. These are delicious and easy but TORE ME UP for two full days. I've gotten over it now but hesitate to sally forth into THAT particular mine field again. Maybe with a LOT of fennel seed tea and epazote on hand I'd try them again? We will see. Guess I'll have to since I bought two bags...

Better than canned and so easy.
