Brown ground meat, onion and garlic in electric skillet at 365F or in large heavy skillet on medium-high heat. Drain. Stir in tomatoes, 1/3 cup salsa, chili powder, thyme, salt and cayenne. Simmer at 300F or on medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until mixture is thickened. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat. Stir in refried beans.

Heat 2 or 3 inches Crisco Oil to 365F in deep fryer or deep saucepan.
