How to make Copycat Taco Bell Copycat Taco Bell Pintos and Cheese
-
Start by opening your can of Old El Paso Refried Beans. As mentioned earlier, this specific brand is crucial to achieving that authentic Taco Bell taste and texture.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine the Old El Paso Refried Beans, water, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. The water will help achieve the desired creamy consistency.

Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir the mixture continuously until the cheese is completely melted and incorporated into the beans. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Once your Taco Bell-style refried beans are smooth, creamy, and bubbling, they are ready to serve.

Ladle the beans into serving bowls. If you want to mimic the classic Taco Bell Pinto's N' Cheese experience, add the sauce above.
-
Now, it's time to sprinkle some extra cheddar cheese on top. You can be generous with the cheese if you like it extra cheesy, just like at Taco Bell.
-
These delicious Taco Bell-style refried beans can be served in various ways. Use them as a filling for burritos, as a topping for taco salads, or simply as a dip for tortilla chips.

For the full Taco Bell experience, pair these beans with our Taco Filling for Burritos, and you'll have a Mexican dinner that's hard to beat.
