So many of us buy refried beans in a can when we want to make a Mexican meal. But, did you know you can make nearly twice the amount of refried bean from scratch with the cost of one can of store-bought beans? Save your money and give this recipe a try. It's not only healthier for you, you can control your ingredients without added preservatives.

  • 3 cups dry pinto beans
  • 4 1/2 quarts water
  • 4 ounces green chiles, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle chile pepper
  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons salt (optional)
  • 1/3 cup unrefined virgin coconut oil
  • 1/2 tablespoon onion powder
