How people cook with it
These beans are a versatile ingredient that can be used in many different types of meals.

- Incorporated into casseroles
- Served as a side dish
To use, simply drain and rinse the canned beans. They can be added directly to hot dishes like chili, soups, or baked beans to absorb flavors and add substance. For a smoother texture, they can be mashed with a fork or blended into purees for dips, spreads, or even baby food. They also hold their shape well when baked, making them suitable for casseroles and gratins. Their mild taste allows them to complement a wide range of seasonings and other ingredients.
