Boy does it come alive with a delicious probiotic tingle on the tongue. I did it once with kidneys and once with black beans and next will try the pintos, but I highly recommend that last step.

I made it last night with sprouted pinto beans because we were having tacos. My MIL uses a can of refried beans in her taco meat, so I wanted to copy that but healthier. My tastebuds were literally shocked when I tasted them after they were done. It was really an a-ha moment for me in the sense that real food tastes SO much better than processed. Another reason why I am so thankful I decided to become a member. :) Marcella This is the best recipe for refried beans I’ve ever tasted!

They were so fabulous! And we ate on them all week! Glad to know they can be frozen as well, as I could double the batch to save the work! I made these beans for our “taco tuesday” last week.

The one thing I love to add to my beans is butter! It makes the beans taste so yummy! You just can't go wrong with butter.

The acid is to neutralize phytic acid, which is present in all seeds. The phytic acid gets in the way of mineral absorption, so it is very good to neutralize. Ever since we have been cooking this way, my mineral deficiencies have gone away. I used to get leg cramps, but no more. I also used to be anemic, and while I haven't had a test to confirm that I'm not anymore, I certainly am not in an "anemic fog" anymore. The soaking/cooking beans info is here: http://gnowfglins.com/2006/05/12/cooking-dry-beans/ I'm glad you're making the refried beans - so yummy! Hi, Robin!

Just wanted to let you know that we are using this for soaking/cooking beans. :) What is the acid for? We are using lemon juice. We probably will turn the beans into your refried beans. I printed off the recipe a few years ago and still have it. Have a wonderful week and thank you for these awesome instructions. Hi Wardeh!
