[…] with refried beans, like so many people do, I just took a can of Bush’s Black Beans and mashed them with a fork. Doing this created a much easier foundation on which to layer the meat and the cheese before […]

We put our can of beans in a small heated pan and mash them up with a potato masher, add a little water so the beans don’t stick to the pan. Add cheese to your warm beans and spread on your tostadas. Add any additional toppings. (My momma adds a little flour and oil to make her refried beans…I don’t know why but it makes them so yummy.)

Cheesy beans are great if you have little ones, you don’t end up with more cheese on their plates and the floor because it’s melted in with the beans.

Wow, years that I have not touched on beans. Just did not like it. Now because of these pictures, I want to try it again:)

Wow! That looks great…we are very guilty of running out to buy more…of anything.
I will definitely try to empty the pantry more before running out.

Their go-to is bean and cheese quesadillas. They are easy to make and are packed with protein. Happy Monday!

Sandy, I must say that we are very guilty of running to the grocery store before we check the pantry to see if there is something we can use to substitute for meat. I never thought of mashed beans – what a good idea!
