Mock Pecan Pie Made with Refried Beans image

I loved my Grandma Sadie. When she passed, I inherited her cookbooks, one of which was titled, "From the Queen's Kitchen: A Collection of Pinto Bean Recipes from Cortez, Colorado" This cookbook was published in 1967 but encompasses a time span from 1958 to 1967. All recipes were taste tested during the Four Corners Harvest...
