Everyone knows that in order to truly be healthy you need to eat a nutritious and balanced diet and get a proper workout regularly. The unfortunate thing is that, at the end of the day, we don't always have enough time or energy required for a healthy lifestyle. When our work day is complete, most people do not want to go to the gym. A hot, grease laden burger is usually our food of choice and not a leafy green salad (unless we are vegetarians). You will be delighted to discover that achieving good health doesn't have to be hard. With practice you can get all of the nutritional requirements and the exercise that you need. Here are some very simple ways to get healthy.

Water is the best beverage out there. Soda and coffee, when ingested in small amounts, aren't that bad. Getting most of your hydration from them is a awful idea. Drinking water instead of other kinds of drinks is a good way to aid your body in its health and hydration. You’re also cutting hundreds of calories out of your diet— without having to deal with terrible tasting diet food. Effective weight loss efforts often depend exclusively on water ingestion.

There are all sorts of things that you can do to get wholesome. Extensive gym visits and directly defined diets are not always the solution. You can do small things each day to improve upon your health and lose weight. Make smart choices every day is a great start. A suitable amount of physical activity each day is also necessary. Remember: being healthy isn’t just about reducing your weight. You want your body to be strong too.

Instructions to make Vegan Refried Beans:

1. Wash the pinto beans and soak with 2 cups of water for at least 8-10 hours. I have used the beans depicted in the picture of the completed dish..
2. In a large stockpot, add the soaked pinto beans along with the water it has been soaking in and add an additional 3 cups of water..
3. To the beans, add sliced garlic and the dried oregano. The original recipe uses epazote but I didn’t have any on hand so some dried oregano will do just fine..
4. Bring these beans up to a boil on high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a medium and let the beans simmer for an hour and a half..
5. Alternatively (this is the method I used), if you own a pressure cooker, you may add all of the above ingredients into a pressure cooker and cook for 6 whistles on medium-high heat..
6. WARNING: When using a pressure cooker, exercise extreme caution! Open the lid only when all the pressure has settled!.
7. Check for the doneness of the beans. Using the back of a spoon, mash a bean against the wall of your vessel. If it turns to mush pretty easily, your beans are done..
8. In a saucepan, heat your butter and add the finely diced onions to it. Sauté well until the onions turn a light brown colour..
9. Add the sliced Serrano chilli pepper and the smoked paprika. Alternatively, you can use fresh jalapeño pepper and chipotle.
10. Next, using a spider spoon or a slotted spoon, remove your beans from the water and add them all to the saucepan. Add enough salt to flavour the beans. Do not discard all that flavourful water! We have a use for it..
11. Using a spatula or a flat spoon, gently begin mashing the beans in the saucepan. Add a tablespoon at a time of water (that the beans cooked in) and continue mashing until the water has been absorbed by the dish..
12. Now, you can make the dish as watery or thick as you want or as smooth or grainy as you like. This depends on how much water you add and how much you mash..
13. Continue adding the flavoured water and mashing the beans until it reached your desired consistency. I personally made them grainy because I love some texture in the beans! I also made it pretty firm so I added lesser water..
14. Once you reach your desired consistency, your dish is ready! Remove from heat and let cool before you add it to your tacos 😉.
