Homemade Re Fried Beans With Homemade Fajita Seasoning

This recipe is my husband’s creation.  Like I’ve said before, he’s more the fan of tex-mex food than I am.  I mean, I like it as long as it is not too spicy.  He loves to load on the hot sauce. 🙂  Most canned re-fried beans have that gross metallic aftertaste as only canned products do not to mention preservatives to keep it shelf-stable.  This homemade refried bean recipe  is far tastier and better for you!

In addition to this yummy recipe, he also created a homemade fajita seasoning.  If you didn’t know (I didn’t until recently), most store bought spice mixes contain MSG.  Yuck!  It is pretty easy (and much cheaper), to make your own.  If you are interested in his other recipes, click here and here.  This would go great with my Homemade Tortilla Chips!
