I have tried lots of different canned refried beans brands as I eat lots of refried beans… bean tostadas, beans in my fajitas, bean burritos, etc. In my opinion, La Preferida Vegetarian Refried Beans are the best; usually found in the Mexican food section. I put them in a bowl, add some water to thin them out (I prefer them less thick than they are out of the can), and microwave them. The flavor and texture is excellent.
