refried beans

I'm all for simplicity, if it taste good, and somewhat healthy. There is nothing wrong with canned refried beans, but these taste better.
You need
1 can black beans
1 yellow onion
1-2 slices bacon (depending on taste)
Cut the bacon into bite sized pieces. Place in pan. Cut onion. An apple slicer works great if the one round piece doesn't bug you. Its fast and easy. add onion to the pan. Brown the bacon and caramelize  the onion.
Meanwhile, pour about 1/2 the can in blender. Blend till smooth. add blended beans and whole beans to the bacon and onion. Turn stove down to simmer, and stir, till desired temperature reached.
