Or do I need to serve anything with them, are they food enough on their own?

Tend to have them on their own but can have rice and/or refried beans if you want.

MamaG · 24/11/2006 13:22

I don't serve anything with them - maybe salad if you think extra stuff is needed?

They are really filling, DH and I have 2 each (and we are greeeeedy)!

I'm having them tonight too.

Baked potatoes with sour cream or spicy sweet potato wedges is what I usually serve.

Refried Beans

Ingredients:
1 slice bacon, diced
16 oz can pinto beans
2 cloves of garlic, crushed or diced
dash ground cumin
dash oregano
dash pepper
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
2 diced roasted chili peppers, optional

Directions:
If using bacon add to frying pan with garlic and spices. Fry until bacon is brown, remove bacon if you like. Lightly fry spices and garlic until garlic is browned. Meanwhile mash beans, add grated cheese and chilies; stir. After browning add bean mixture. Fry/cook until bubbly and hot.
Serve covered with grated cheddar cheese.
