About Refried bean
Refried beans are a staple in Mexican cuisine, traditionally made by cooking and mashing pinto or black beans, which are then sautéed with oil or lard and seasoned with spices like garlic, onion, and cumin. Rich in protein, dietary fiber, and iron, refried beans offer key nutrients that support muscle growth, digestion, and energy production, making them especially beneficial in plant-based diets. However, their nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation methods; versions cooked with large amounts of lard, cheese, or additional fats may be high in saturated fat and calories. For a healthier option, look for refried beans prepared with minimal added fat or choose low-fat canned varieties. Versatile and flavorful, they are commonly used as a side dish, dip, or filling in tacos, burritos, and enchiladas, adding both nutrition and robust taste to meals.
