Can someone please give me some good ideas to add to refried beans? Something that's quick and goood.. I work full time and go to school so I want something that won't take long to make? Thank you in advance

Me too!

Someone suggested somewhere to top the beans with enchilada sauce and cheese. That sounded wonderful to me

I used two can of refried beans, one cooked chicken breast, a half of a small onion, and a quarter cup of fat free cheese. I am on puréed so after I cooked the chicken I cut the meat in smaller pieces and put it in my food processor with the onions and some hot sauce or you could use salsa. After the chicken was cut up in the processor, I added it to the refried beans and cheese in a sauce pan and warmed all of it up. Once warmed I used my food scale and put 2 ounces of food in each paper cupcake mold and froze overnight. The next morning I put them in a freezer bag. They peel off if the paper easily. I have been topping with plain Greek yogurt, a sprinkle of fat free cheese and hot sauce. I think it tastes great and did not take long.

I like refried Beans with enchilada sauce and cheese. It makes a great bean dip too and add ground beef to it too! Nummy!

How do you heat them up again once you have taken them out of the freezer? they sound very tasty.

I love the refried beans, cheese nad enchalada sauce....I also would put avocado on it...love avocado

I'm cracking some refried beans! One more day!

Craving*

I do all sorts of things - torn up piece of turkey bacon, chunks of chicken jalapeno sausage, melted cheese, spicy guacamole (I buy the Wholly Guacamole spicy 100 calorie packs and just add a quarter of the pack), hot sauce, a poached egg. Not all at once of course but I will add hot sauce plus a couple of other things. I love my refried beans.

Wish I could have them - my Doc has me on liquids for almost six weeks total (2.5 more weeks).

I take rottiserie chicken refried beans chicken broth and garlic powder. Put it in blender. Split into 3-4 oz cups and freeze. Great purieed food stage item. Add some shredded cheese and nuke. Tastes like a burrito. Lots of protein.

In the beginning I would go to Taco Bell and get pintos and cheese and a side scoop of taco meat. I would mix them together and be in heaven! Could only eat a small bit, but it was perfect for me!

I just warm up the good in the microwave and top it with plain Greek yogurt.
