Refried Beans With Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until onion becomes translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Cook and stir refried beans into onion mixture until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir cream cheese into bean mixture. Spread mixture into a pie plate; top with Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Cover beans with 4 inches of water and soak for at least 12 hours, or overnight.
• Place the pot with beans and water on the stove and heat to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until much of the water has been absorbed and beans are soft enough to mash, about 2 hours.
• Crush the beans thoroughly with a potato masher. Simmer for 1 hour more.
• Take an immersion blender to the pot and pulverize the beans until there are no visible solids left. If any water remains, simmer until it evaporates and beans are reduced to a thick paste.
• Add milk, lard, garlic powder, salt, chile pepper, cumin, and cayenne and stir to combine. Cook for 10 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Transfer beans to a casserole dish and sprinkle with Oaxaca cheese. Cover with foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 20 minutes, removing foil at the 15-minute mark. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Mix refried beans, 1 1/2 cup Mexican cheese blend, and onion in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
• Stack tortillas, 3 at a time, on a microwave-safe plate; heat in microwave until warmed, about 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
• Pour enough enchilada sauce onto a small plate to cover. Quickly dip both sides of each tortilla in enchilada sauce. Spoon bean filling down the middle of each dipped tortilla and wrap tortilla around filling. Arrange filled tortillas in the prepared baking dish. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over filled tortillas and sprinkle remaining cheese over sauce layer. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbling and cheese is melted, 35 and 40 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil and saute the serrano chili rounds about 20 seconds.
• Add the refried beans and stir with a wooden spoon until the beans are hot and form a paste.
• Add the cheese and stir slowly until just melted, but still visible as swirls of cheese.
• Turn out onto a round serving plate and form into a fat pancake.
• Serve at once with tortilla chips for dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread a little butter on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• Heat some butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and onions and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Off heat, add the tequila, then return to the heat and cook until evaporated, about 1 minute. Add the chili powder, garlic, jalapenos and some salt and pepper and cook for a minute or 2. Add the beans to the skillet and stir to combine everything. Cook until warmed through, about 4 minutes.
• Spread half of the beans in the prepared baking dish. Top with half of the Cheddar and pepper Jack cheeses. Spread on the remaining beans and top with the remaining cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and just beginning to brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium low heat and add half the oil; saute onions until softened, but not browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add chile and garlic; stir about 1 minute.
• Add refried beans and water; stir and chop to fully combine, then turn off heat.
• Heat tortillas, one at a time, over medium low heat just to soften, about 15 seconds per side.
• Spoon about 2 heaping tablespoons of beans and 2 heaping tablespoons cheese; fold by bringing the side closest to you about halfway up.
• Fold in the sides, then continue rolling; flatten slightly with your hand.
• Heat remaining oil in a skillet over medium low heat; brown chimichangas, in batches, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Serve with pico de gallo, sour cream, and shredded cheese, or whatever you choose.

Steps:

• Combine refried beans, undrained beans, undrained tomatoes, Velveeta and onions in medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat until Velveeta melts, stirring frequently.
• Serve with tortilla chips, if desired.
