I stumbled onto this in the local health food store and consider it a staple:
Fantastic Foods, Refried Beans or Black Beans.
All natural, dried, powdered. Add less than 1 cup (per serving) boiled water, stir and let sit 5 minutes. Taste is, as advertised, fantastic.
Oct 31, 2006 at 3:57 pm #1365887I use them in my burritos, and in a couple soups I make. I have been using them for at least a decade! :-)
Oct 31, 2006 at 4:07 pm #1365890that sounds good. I must try it too.

Nov 8, 2006 at 10:47 pm #1366607Yes, agree! Terrific! I add dry sour cream and unsalted sunflower seeds to mine and it makes a great dish.

Hard to beat. I add some powdered hummus, crushed pita chips or sesame sticks, and 1/2 oz of miso soup to make
a meal in a bowl most evenings. A spoonful of olive oil goes well, too. -
