Crock Pot Refried Beans
I know that not everyone is a fan of beans. My kids thought beans were gross until I made a batch of black bean brownies. Now, they ask me to make this to share with their classmates on their birthdays! One of my goals as a real foodie parent is to find a way to get my kids to like all the foods that are good for them. My first attempt at refried beans was a failure, but I’m hoping that this batch of crock pot refried beans will win them over for good. I say hoping, because I haven’t tested these out on my kids yet… YET.
