The only way I really like to eat pinto beans is homemade refried beans. And well, those are high in fat and really labor intensive. My husband created this recipe with the latin flavors we love but in an easier-to-make dish that isn't fried. If you want flavorful beans but don't want to spend hours at the stove, this Cowboy Ranch Beans Recipe is just the ticket!
These Cowboy Ranch Beans are great as a side dish but you can add ground beef or chorizo to make them a hearty main dish. Without the meat, the beans still have a rich hearty flavor, thanks to Knorr Caldo de Res Bouillon (Beef flavor Bouillon). When serving, top them with chopped cilantro, sliced jalapeños, and diced onions to add a little crunch!
