I've read several posts and some blogs about eating refried beans, but I was afraid it would be too heavy or might make me nauseous.  Tonight I was so hungry, didn't really feel like eating the chicken and Greek yogurt (honestly, too lazy to chew, chew, chew) that I had prepared earlier and decided to try some refried beans.
I heated the beans, sprinkled on some shredded cheese, a dollop of Greek yogurt and a squirt of left over Taco Bell sauce packet...OMGosh...sooo good.  Filling, tasty, satisfying and reminds me of something from Taco Bell.  I will definitely have it again.  Can't wait til I can add some diced tomatoes and shredded cheese!

I never knew I could love refried beans the way i do now! I never thought to use the yogurt or taco sauce on them.. I did cook up a piece of Turkey bacon and put it in with the whole can in the blender when I was on purreed. I added a little beef broth to make it like bean soup lol... I have a deep appreciation of the refried beans!  Glad to hear I am not alone!

That's hilarious! Of all the things that I was wondering if I could have, refried beans popped into my mind and I was saying to my husband tonight that  I wondered if I could have refried beans. I can't eat any food until Monday but best believe I'm already cooking those beans up in my head! LOL

Ohhh Refried Beans ... They are a friend.

My pouch did a little happy dance the first time I had them.  Enjoy!

I'm 6 weeks out, and living on protein shakes and refried beans.  They are really the only food I can eat.  The first bite after surgery was the best tasting thing I ever put in my mouth!

I like refried beans now so I really hope my tastes don't change!
