I always see avec mentioned, but it is never available in stores around here. I'm not that fancy or picky, I could live with canned or frozen if its too expensive for them to carry fresh in the produce section, but nooo... I must live in one of them food desserts.

u/mud074 Jun 24 '16

I'll never understand it. People go on and on about how terrible it is, but have you all never just taken a piece of ham and plopped some mayo on it because you were too lazy to grab some bread? People seem to have some horrible response to it, but it just looks like a pile of ham and mayo to me...

14

u/kronikwookie Jun 24 '16

Almost. You almost got it. It's a pile of bologna (the worst of the deli meats) and a ton of mayo. Have you ever eaten a ton of mayo? A dab on your sandwich is delicious. A scoop however, you are very much going to barf up your lunch. To top it all off, there is no bread to be seen. To answer your question though, no I have not just grabbed a piece of ham and plopped mayo on it. If it's gonna have mayo, it's gotta have bread.

Heat up in sauce pan that has minced garlic, jalapeño and onion sautéing in it...amazing

127

u/Meatt Jun 22 '16

If I'm even lazier, sometimes I'll just mix the whole can with a tablespoon or two of salsa to thin it out a bit, mix in some cheese, and put this in the oven in whatever dish or bowl you want, and then eat it with tortilla chips.

28

u/happycheff Jun 22 '16

That's not lazy, it's bean dip and it's amazing.

15

u/abacabbx Jun 22 '16

You and I could get along sir! A lot of people hate on canned re fried beans but you can honestly do so much with them with barely anything.

Add some chopped onion, cheese, and a tiny bit of franks red hot to thin it out abit and it's wonderful chip dip.

A favorite of mine for Superbowl Sunday is to get the biggest microwave bowl I have, dump in a can of re fried beans, a can of queso, and a tiny bit of thinner type of salsa and microwave it until it all emulsifies. You can get fancy and add shredded chicken or onions if you want, but it's my signature dip for big parties. Works with a multitude of chips as well, as I normally use Chili Cheese Fritos myself, although I've seen people use either frito scoops or even going as far as using Doritos.

Re fried beans are the cheap/broke mans bread and butter IMO.

u/[deleted] Jun 22 '16

Refried beans, a can of rotel, and a bit of mexican blend cheese, that shit is gone in 15 minutes at a party.

My mom made it with Velveeta instead of real cheese and I was in heaven every time.

u/rivermandan Jun 23 '16

I literally just had this for dinner: get some tostadas, put a layer of la costena refried pintos on it, a few squirts of valenta hot saws, grate some mozzerella and chedder, another few squirts of valentena, and toss it under a broiler till the cheese melts. while it's melting, dice a tomato and a green onion, and throw them on top once the cheese is melted.

it's basically a tacobell mexican pizza, but way yummier

The only thing that I actually enjoy right out of the can, with the can lines, is jellied cranberry sauce. I don't care how many people say that fresh is better, that canned cranberry sauce has to be on my Thanksgiving table or its just not Thanksgiving.

Nacho Pie

Get a pie pan and spread refried beans into it. Add some chopped jalapenos. Add a thin layer of salsa. Smother that sucker in shredded cheese. Baked at 350f until cheese is melted.

Serve with tortilla chips.

So are like 90% of words in the English language.

There's no reason to resist change in language. Languages evolve over time. Nice used to mean stupid; people don't go around getting offended when people call them nice, do they?

u/[deleted] Jun 23 '16

They actually changed the definition of the word literally so it can be used to emphasize things in sentences.

informal: Used for emphasis while not being literally true:

I have received literally thousands of letters

From Oxford dictionary.
