~muffin mix                                      ~bean burritos*

*I make a huge batch of bean burritos to freeze. All I do is cook up a big pot of pinto beans, about  6 cups of them. Then when they're done, I take my cast iron frying pan, and melt about 1 stick of margarine or butter and add the beans and a little of the liquid, and with my potato masher I mash them all up and fry them up a bit. Then add what all I want to....usually some salsa and cheese and maybe some jalopenos in some of them and a little seasoning. They are yummy and freeze really well.
