Cookquik Dehy Refried Smooth Pinto, 30 oz

Quality:Great product

These don't have a lot of flavor but I just add a little bit of meat like bacon or chorizo with the grease. Maybe just a spoonful of butter for the fat. I put a little good Redmond salt, lemon pepper, Louisiana seasoning, and few pieces of chopped white onion and garlic salt with some dehydrated rice. This is great for MRE. I bought enough rice and beans for 44 servings, like 44 and 22 for the beans, counting all the rice and both cost less than $21.00, the reason I don't want to buy MREs anymore is because they're so full of hydrogenated oils and preservatives and stuff that I don't want in my body. These are pure good foods. I'm still experimenting with what kind of meat to put, but I did have a can of roast beef with the juices in it, so far those have been hitting the spot. I put a half a cup of rice maybe three quarters of a cup of beans and it fills up a glass bowl and I put the lid on it after putting the right amount of boiling water. So rice and beans are the same dehydrated, if I put in a half a cup of rice and a half a cup of beans I put in a cup of water that's boiling, I put the lid over it and I may have to heat it up again once the water is in it stir it up and then I'll let it sit for a few minutes and it tastes delicious! Oh yeah and both the rice and the beans fit perfect in a 5 gallon bucket with a lid. Great prepping foods!

They didn’t taste horrible. But they didn’t taste good either. I feel with a little more experimenting with salt and seasoning they might be alright.

We love dehydrated beans. WAY better than canned refried beans. Wish I could buy beans like this in the grocery store.

These are the absolute best refried beans! So yummy! The whole family loves them! Very simple to make! & fast!

So convenient and taste great! You just have to church them up a bit.

I do not like the taste of canned refried beans, and I often make my own homemade. But these are great to keep on hand, for when I don't have leftover beans or don't have the time or inclination to fool with that. They taste great, will last indefinitely, and are quick and easy to prepare.

Disappointing.
