1/2 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped, or 1 can chopped green chilies

Directions:
Place the onion, rinsed beans, jalapeno, garlic, salt, chili powder, pepper, and cumin into a slow cooker. Pour in the water or broth and stir to combine. Cook on High for 8 hours, adding more water as needed. Note: if more than 1 cup of water has evaporated during cooking, then the temperature is too high. Once the beans have cooked, strain them, and reserve the liquid. Mash the beans with a potato masher, adding the reserved water as needed to attain desired consistency. Season with more salt, if needed.

Personal Notes:
This came from allrecipes.com. I was curious to try, and the family and I both agreed it was amazingly good. In fact, I have stopped buying canned refried beans. These are so much better! And you can freeze what you don't eat. I preferred them with the green chilies - go with the jalapeno if you like spicy beans.
