if they're dried, soak em the previous night....then boil until soft ( or mushy..if you like it that way! lol )
portion the cooked beans when theyre cooled..into baggies and freeze the excess.
I suggest draining and rinsing canned beans really well..too much sodium.
You can add cooked beans to soups, over salads, baked with chicken or bacon etc, they are great with scrambled eggs, or in an omelet.
Pinto beans are great to make Mexican soup with. or Refried beans...the healthy way.
Black beans go well with salads and some stirfries
Great Northern beans are great in soups with lentils etc.
Kidney beans are usually good in chili or indian recipes ....
Chickpeas are great to make Hummus with...or boiled with salt and added to salads. YUM!!0
