To prepare, simply open the can and heat the contents on the stovetop or in the microwave until thoroughly warmed. For stovetop heating, pour the beans into a saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. For microwave preparation, transfer the beans to a microwave-safe dish and heat on high for a few minutes, stirring halfway through. Avoid boiling the beans, as this can alter their texture. They are best served hot.
