Refried Bean Dip
Refried Bean Dip is a creamy Mexican-inspired spread traditionally made by mashing cooked beans (typically pinto or black beans) with seasonings and fats. Despite its name, the dish is generally fried only once, with 'refried' deriving from the Spanish term 'refritos' meaning 'well-fried.' This protein- and fiber-rich preparation serves as both a dip for tortilla chips and a filling for burritos, while modern variations often incorporate cheese, spices, or vegetable purees. Commercial versions may contain added oils, but homemade iterations can be adapted for vegan or low-fat diets through ingredient substitutions.
