It ended up being a completely tasteless and dry bowl of boiled and mashed beans. I know they are supposed to be low-fat, but in an attempt to salvage it I added some butter and WAY more spices than the recipe called for. It did end up being edible - but barely! I will never use this recipe again.

I really liked this recipe. Lots of flavor and very easy. I guess the other person that rated this thought she should add butter because she wanted it to be high fat! The purpose of this recipe is low fat and this is a great idea because bought refried beens are loaded with fat and salt.

The only thing missing is the salt. Adding butter instead of salt doesn't sound very good. If you want to add the fat lard is more traditional and in this is actually better. Although that would defeat the purpase of a low fat dish.
