I love refried beans with cheese and to top a toasted French roll with that combination was perfect for a quick lunch. I used fat free refried beans and low fat cheddar.

Yum! My kids love these. With some fresh veggies, it's lunch.

I thought that I would try this with a little bit of refried bean mixture left over from some enchiladas - used a taco blend of shredded cheese - THIS IS GOOD!! My supermarket had a large loaf of french bread for $2 this week - I bought another can of no fat organic refried beans (on sale for $1) so I could do more of these:))) One eighth of the french bread with this and a salad are a GREAT lunch!! This is like a Mexican french bread pizza!!! Thanks for posting and helping my limping budget along - dgpat

I loved this! After I made it according to directions, that is. I first tried to get by using a wheat bun. It was okay but lacked the density that the french bread gives. I used an artisian french roll and extra sharp cheddar and this was the bomb! Will definetly be having this again! Thank you Ashhhhhaaaaaa!
