4 servings (1/3 cup)
Ingredients:
1/4 cup uncooked onions, finely chopped
1/8 tsp table salt
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp ground cumin
1 1/2 cups canned pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1/3 cup water
1/2 tbsp fresh lime juice
Directions:
In a sprayed medium saucepan over medium heat, add onion and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and are turning translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the garlic, chili powder and cumin. Cook, stirring constantly, about 30 seconds. Pour in the drained beans and water. Stir, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and remove the lid. Use a potato masher or a fork to mash at least half of the beans until you reach your desired consistency. Continue to cook the beans, uncovered, stirring often, for 3 more minutes.
Remove the saucepan and stir in lime juice.
Suggested Serving: Excellent side dish.
