‘Bean’ There, Doing That

‘Beans, beans are good for the heart…’I won’t go on, but it’s true. They are good for the heart. So it’s no wonder that when we were thinking of recipe ideas for the month of March, our nutritionist friends at Fab Food Finds recommended black beans as the main ingredient for EatSavvy. You’ll find most recipes with black beans have a Mexican theme to them, which is a good thing for moms. Our experience has taught us that most kids like Mexican food (think nachos, cheese and salsa) and black beans are an added bonus to the menu filled with protein and fibre.
So don’t forget to slip some black beans in your quesadillas next time, or add them to your quinoa salad. Delish. Since kids like to dip, try the no-cook black bean dip with whole-wheat pita crisps.
