For a deeper smoky flavor, consider using smoked paprika. Adjust the amount of pickled jalapenos to your desired spice level. If you don't have ranch-style beans, you can substitute with plain pinto beans and add a tablespoon of chili powder for a similar flavor profile. This dish freezes well, making it perfect for meal prepping.
