I live so far below the poverty line but this kind of cooking makes me feel rich. Thank you so much for something good, filling, and actually affordable
Growing up, I didn’t know that Mom’s homemade cornbread and pinto beans was a budget stretcher. All I knew was it was delicious and is still one of my favorite meals. On grocery shopping day, she’d bring a pkg of weiners and a loaf of bread to the park and we 4 girls would get to play and eat (and feed the ducks) before we had to go shopping. It was a special treat for us and a tradition I carried on with my kids.
Yours is a beautiful story. When I was a kid, my dad made certain dishes (he was Hungarian) that he grew up with, and I loved them. So did friends from school who came over. He later told me all he made was "food for peasants", because he grew up very poor. My mother grew up here in the States during the Great Depression, and she too grew up very poor and made so many dishes from that era that tasted so good. Today I have the most wonderful memories, and isn't it amazing that yesteryear's budget-friendly foods are sometimes served in popular restaurants and very popular today. Happy reminiscing!
this is honestly one of the best recipe videos i’ve ever watched! clear, calm narration and easy to follow steps. i love how with almost every step, you were able to give us tips and/or substitutes! shows just how long you’ve been making it and how comfortable you are with this recipe! thank you, i’ll try it soon!
You’re so sweet…I can tell that people have really criticized you about “seasoning” and personal preference. 😢 You’re awesome, I love all your recipes and appreciate all you do!!
Thank you for your tutorial. I grew up on homemade tortillas, beans, rice and cheese for dinner meals many days. Your recipes are very similar to my little grandma and moms cooking. Thanks for bringing back childhood memories. ❤️❤️❤️
Such a well-timed video from you. My grandma just passed last week, and I remember her telling me a story about growing up poor in Compton in the 30s (dirt floor, no interior plumbing), only being able to afford taking bean tacos to school for lunch, and how she would sometimes trade her tacos with the white students who brought sandwiches.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this delicious recipe and refreshing cucumber drink that I can't wait to make. You are so right about making a pot of beans that could make many recipes. We too, used government cheese that our elderly neighbor was so kind to give my mom when she was a single mother raising 4 kids. We didn't have much but we learned to appreciate the little things in life all the way to the present day. How I miss that government cheese and butter. Everything looks delicious. I love how Everything was made from scratch. As an avid reader, I'm very picky about the books I purchase but if I see it's worth buying; I definitely buy it. This book is definitely a must have purchase I will definitely keep to my collection. Please continue success with making videos and more cookbooks. You're SIMPLY THE BEST (culinary artist).🍽🥤🧀🥚🍳🥓
Bean, cheese and bacon tacos are one of my all time favorite foods. I grew up on having beans and rice or beans and cornbread and I still love them. I just love your videos so much and you have taught me so many great recipes. I hope you know how loved you are.
I love and appreciate your stories along with your beautiful recipes. You help others know their not alone as well as encourage and educate us on how we can feed ourselves and our families. Thank you so much! 🥰💜
My family used to eat pinto beans with white rice during our less fortunate times, now whenever I see pinto beans or refried beans it never fails to make my mouth water. This recipe looks amazing, I will definitely be making it!
Looks good. I grew up around this food in South Texas. I'm 80 and still love it . We are hard core preppers and have tons of the ingredients for this food. Love your videos. Have your book and have watched your channel for years watching your success upgrade your kitchen. It's looking nice. Your humble follower. Dandahermit
I have literally been making these all week for breakfast till today cause it was payday. I was using some Mayocoba beans that I had made for refrying, then some canned when we ran out of fresh. I threw a fried egg on the tacos for a few days too. It always slaps. 💖
Hi azucenaaviles bean and cheese so good no matter the age huh I'm 36 haven't had one in so long I use to eat them when I use to work outside when given the chance that was my morning breakfast bean and cheese tacos
Oh my gosh, 3 of the ingredients are on my "4 food items on stranded on a deserted island" list - beans, cheese and bread (tortillas). Bean and cheese soft tacos are a comfort food to me too. Thanks for sharing!
Hi lollycastillo just randomly came across the video bean and cheese are my favorite tacos among many others but It sure was my morning breakfast taco for years 😁
ONE of the best meals to eat ❤️❤️❤️ you can't beat a nice homemade warm flour tortilla with creamy refried beans and cheese inside with some salsa rojo 🤤😍✨✨✨
Bean and Cheese tacos are my total comfort food - my grandma would have them for me everyday after school!!!!! Total Comfort and I still love them to this day!!!
Yes I totally agree with you crankytang interesting name by the way the were my morning breakfast years ago before going to work its actually been long since I had some lately just eat egg sausage and cheese croissant every now and then
The best comfort food! I made your beans and ate them with store bought tortillas and chorizo egg! Now that was very tasty. The beans were so delicious. Thank you for sharing love your recipes.
Oh god, the TH-cam algorithm is serving new kinds of delicious recipes at 1:00 AM and making me super hungry! Glad I'm doing my grocery shopping this weekend!
We can all live on this. I do. You will never get sick of it, just crave it more and more. Thanks, much gratitude, and respect to our indigeno and Mexicano brothers and cousins for inventing this food..
Mama's in the kitchen! Banging those pots and pans! Blessings to you and your family. ❤ Homemade heaven! I loved government cheese! The best American cheese ever. Sometimes we got butter, too.
One of my favorite go to meals. I was fortunate to have grown up in a neighborhood where we had several Hispanic families living there. It was so awesome to go home with a friend and smell all the delicious aromas. I tried to watch what they were doing so I could make these foods at home. We had tacos often, just not often enough. I am vegetarian so I exchange some other tasty item for the meat I don't use. The different spices perk up anything!!
Honestly thanks so much for this video, I grew up on beans and tortillas for dinner 2-3 nights a week. Honestly it’s the only meal I can eat and not crave like a protein like chicken or beef. I know my son will never have to worry about where our food comes from now, even through we are struggling my parents help us when they can. Im in tears thinking about how tv was never a thing for me growing up but a bowl of beans and a round table we would sit and eat and talk for hours. I hope one day in the future my son will value these moments like I did as a teen. As a child I hated it lol 😅 I wanted to play and watch Pokémon but we couldn’t. Im so thankful for where the Lord has my family now. Honestly love your channel! So happy you have 1.58 million subscribers!
The drink is SO easy and impressive and original !!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰♥️♥️♥️ you THANK YOU YOU TUBE FOR THESE TALENTS and your generous with your recipe ♥️♥️♥️
i used to eat bean and cheese burritos when i was younger after every baseball game in little league. there is something about bean and cheese burritos that is so good. One of my absolute favorite comfort foods.
This is comfort food at its Best 💯💖 I grew up the same way (and still make this) & just love how you're passing this on to your boys. This is how you know you're loved. Good food made with 💯 love. 💘 Thank you 🥰 for sharing, mama. 🙏🏻 May you be forever blessed. 💕
I love your channel; you provide a way for me to make meals that everyone loves and that I can afford. No fancy cooking devices and simple wholesome ingredients. Thank you…
Bean 'n cheese tacos are great, one of my favorites. I just got a new tortilla press so I can start making my own corn tortillas from scratch. I mean, I make everything else from scratch I might as well do those too. This video reminded me I can also make my own flour tortillas, so I'll have to add that to the list.
My tortillas were perfect! First time making them. The bean and cheese taco reminded me of a taco bell bean and cheese burrito, but in the best way possible. They were delicious! Thank you for another great video!
I love refried beans ❤. Making those tacos or burritos with beans and cheese is everything! Adding bacon bits adds a lot of flavor and texture as well.
What an amazing video. My kids and I eat bean burritos all day long and visit taco bell for them atleast two times a week. So much protein in beans. I will defiantly follow this recipe. Thank You!
Absolutely fabulous in every respect. I really need to watch my finances. These budget-friendly recipes are certainly helpful. I know they are going to be delicious. Thank you so much!
This recipe brought a smile to my face at the end! Not sure how to describe it, but there is a beautiful simplicity to each of our culture’s comfort foods. Filipino and Mexican comfort food reign supreme, in my opinion:)
Your flour tortillas look just like my mom's, and I love it. They are supposed to be soft and fluffy, and too many times I see people make them but they look chewy and flat. Thank you for sharing this delicious meal... one that we had often as children, when mom was trying to make her paycheck stretch for the week.
My go to comfort food is frijoles a la olla, corn tortillas on the side with queso fresco and avocado, cilantro, onion and chiltepin for the beans. Amazing
I live so far below the poverty line but this kind of cooking makes me feel rich. Thank you so much for something good, filling, and actually affordable
Beans, squash, rice, and potatos have saved the world from hunger. 🌎 simple foods but so grateful. 🙏
Amen!!!
Simple foods and the most nutritious, add some greens in there and you have perfection.
dont forget plantain
You just named my favorite foods! BTW, love your name. Now I’m craving a fried bologna and salami sandwich.
@@onyxxxynono, they’re survival foods. But workable in a pinch
Simple bean and cheese tacos are one of life's greatest blessings. 🥰
Love refried beans and cheese....
You can’t underestimate the extra delight of having fresh homemade tortillas.
Amen!!❤
Absolutely! 🙌
I concur!
Beans n tortillas n gubment cheese. Feels like home. ❤

Beans beans they’re good for your heart…
Same if we had it she'd put hamburger meat and onions in it. And for dessert was more cornbread and milk lol
#fartlife
Those homemade tortillas look so FIREEEEE
Yeeeeessssss!! Gotta make some!!!
Spicy food is good but it’s not that spicy
this is honestly one of the best recipe videos i’ve ever watched! clear, calm narration and easy to follow steps. i love how with almost every step, you were able to give us tips and/or substitutes! shows just how long you’ve been making it and how comfortable you are with this recipe! thank you, i’ll try it soon!

Thank you for sharing your recipes with us! God bless you!
Yes beans and cheese tacos the best any time of day ❤🙋♀️😋😋😋
So simple, easy, fresh and good and cheap thank you so much
My default taco is always potato and bean. It was my mom's family's struggle meal when she was a kid and she kind of passed it onto me too.
that sounds yummy, do you boil and mash the potatoes? Or dice and fry/bake?
@@karinpawluk4376 diced potatoes (sprinkled with some garlic salt and black pepper) in the air fryer!
Love taco de papa
Potatoes on tacos is so underrated
When I’m out of potatoes I air fry tater rounds (thinner tater tots). I love potatoes in my tacos!
Sometimes the simple things are the best when made with love and care. Just...perfection!
Thank you for your tutorial. I grew up on homemade tortillas, beans, rice and cheese for dinner meals many days. Your recipes are very similar to my little grandma and moms cooking. Thanks for bringing back childhood memories. ❤️❤️❤️
That Thumbnail had me drooling lol.
Bean tacos are really good. I love it when the beans are almost like peanut butter
This is my kind of comfort food too
Thank you so much and God bless!
Thank you for posting this. Many of us are going through hard times, and whether you need comfort food or budget-friendly food this is great.
Your cookbook is THE BEST!! I've learned so much and have never fed my family so well!
Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with the world. You are an invaluable member of the Mexican community and we are blessed to have you.
Such a well-timed video from you. My grandma just passed last week, and I remember her telling me a story about growing up poor in Compton in the 30s (dirt floor, no interior plumbing), only being able to afford taking bean tacos to school for lunch, and how she would sometimes trade her tacos with the white students who brought sandwiches.
Lucky other students
Loved that scene from Flamin Hot where he does that as a kid with bean burritos. I wish I had a friend to trade my ham or pb&j with back in the day!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this delicious recipe and refreshing cucumber drink that I can't wait to make. You are so right about making a pot of beans that could make many recipes. We too, used government cheese that our elderly neighbor was so kind to give my mom when she was a single mother raising 4 kids. We didn't have much but we learned to appreciate the little things in life all the way to the present day. How I miss that government cheese and butter.
Everything looks delicious. I love how Everything was made from scratch. As an avid reader, I'm very picky about the books I purchase but if I see it's worth buying; I definitely buy it.

I remember govt cheese, and miss it .😢 You could make some really good Mac n cheese with that!
I love the heck out of a simple, but GOOD, bean and cheese taco. I have no doubts about these, so thank you!
Bean, cheese and bacon tacos are one of my all time favorite foods. I grew up on having beans and rice or beans and cornbread and I still love them. I just love your videos so much and you have taught me so many great recipes. I hope you know how loved you are.
Yes!!! Bean, cheese and bacon tacos are my favorite!
I agree. I have to have them at least once a month.
One of the best meals out there, you can't be a homemade flour tortilla with refried beans and cheese and salsa picante 🤤😍💜
I love and appreciate your stories along with your beautiful recipes. You help others know their not alone as well as encourage and educate us on how we can feed ourselves and our families. Thank you so much! 🥰💜
Looks delicious.
Literally drooling rn 🤤 watching
My family used to eat pinto beans with white rice during our less fortunate times, now whenever I see pinto beans or refried beans it never fails to make my mouth water. This recipe looks amazing, I will definitely be making it!
You have a very comforting vibe, and that translates tasty meals. I plan to get your cookbook soon, and I'm definitely making that Agua de pepino.

I have literally been making these all week for breakfast till today cause it was payday. I was using some Mayocoba beans that I had made for refrying, then some canned when we ran out of fresh. I threw a fried egg on the tacos for a few days too. It always slaps. 💖
Also i love hearing about times and meals that made it through hard times. Would love more budget family meals.
My mom made these and I so think, it's better than having anything out there! Makes you humble and remember where you came from!
Hi azucenaaviles bean and cheese so good no matter the age huh I'm 36 haven't had one in so long I use to eat them when I use to work outside when given the chance that was my morning breakfast bean and cheese tacos

I mean, I make everything else from scratch I might as well do those too. This video reminded me I can also make my own flour tortillas, so I'll have to add that to the list.
I've learnt...the hard way, that if we add salt to uncooked beans ..in the beginning, it dries them out.
Great video xo Thank you xo
My tortillas were perfect! First time making them. The bean and cheese taco reminded me of a taco bell bean and cheese burrito, but in the best way possible. They were delicious! Thank you for another great video!
I love your cookbook. Everybody, it is great, you have to buy it. Thanks, Simply Mama. ❤👍👍👍
And…..just had bean and cheese tacos for dinner! Love this and such a great simple and flavorful dinner! 🤠💕
I love refried beans ❤. Making those tacos or burritos with beans and cheese is everything! Adding bacon bits adds a lot of flavor and texture as well.
