Easy Cumin Refried Beans

In a medium saucepan over medium heat add olive oil, onion and garlic. Let the mixture bloom for 2 minutes. Add the chicken stock, cumin, garlic salt and pepper. Bring this mixture to a simmer.

Add the drained and rinsed beans. Bring to a simmer, cover and let it cook for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally and checking the liquid level. Add more stock if needed. As you stir, lightly mash the beans, but also leave some whole.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Spoon into a large bowl and top with cotija cheese and fresh cilantro! Enjoy!
