What kind of beans are used in Mexican food?

I really like tacos and burritos and I was wondering, because right now I have been using kidney beans, but it's been getting boring and doesn't taste like the beans in restaurants or even Taco Bell. Also, what are some good spices and sauces (I already use salsa) and some good recipes? I am a vegetarian, so nothing with meat of any kind.What kind of beans are used in Mexican food?
The beans used for mexican food are "Frijloles Pintos" (Pinto beans) and "flor de mayo" (flor de mayo beans).



For spices... you can buy canned "chiles jalape?os"... also, add onion and cilantro to your tacos. You can try adding pinneaple (it's used for the "Tacos al pastor") ex: http://www.saborcontinental.com/wp-conte…



Always add lemon juice and salt to your tacos.



You can try with guacamole used as salsa:

It's usually pinto beans, sometimes black beans.

Pan fry in oil with cumin, salt and pepper. Squish the cooked beans to a paste with the back of a big spoon while cooking.

Taco bell probably uses flavor enhancers and preservatives.

Pinto beans, normally, butyou could use black, too. Some spices you need are chili powder and cumin. They'll be great.
Pinto beans

Chipotle sauce

Tabasco sauce

Refined beans are really good. =)
Black beans are my favorites. Try fat free refried beans, they don't have the lard in them are are suitable for vegetarians
Avoid refried beans. They are made out of a hog's abdomen. Try adding pinto beans and smash them.
pinto beans and they are really cooked down with spices like garlic and onion and salt.
