For an even richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken or vegetable broth instead of water to cook the beans. Experiment with different types of cheese for topping, such as Monterey Jack or a blend of Mexican cheeses. If you prefer a smoother consistency, use an immersion blender to puree the beans instead of a potato masher.
