Agreed, I made them quite frequently, much less sodium too.

I’ve never had any luck with cooking beans in the crock pot. They never seem to get soft. I’ve made sure the beans were fresh and followed all the directions, etc. I’ve had great success cooking them in my pressure cooker though.

You totally control the amount of salt! I added 3 t. as you can see. You wouldn’t have to add any! That’s the beauty of cooking from scratch!

Just with salt and pepper while cooking. You could put half an onion in too. Or celery if you have some you need to use up.

They DO sell “vegetarian” refried beans in a can! But why buy that when you can make your own for less and they taste so much better?
