10 things we bet you didn’t know about jelly beans!
It's Friday, so we thought we'd have some fun and share some pretty cool facts about one of our favourites, jelly beans! How many did you already know?
Butterbean soup
This simple and quick butterbean soup will have your taste buds (and your wallet) tingling with glee. Enjoy with a delicious home-baked bread!
Scrambled egg wraps with beans
Whether you need a powerful protein kick to get you through the day, or you are just a fan of a massive breakfast, these scrambled egg wraps will get you where you want to go.
Pesto chicken and bean bowl
Made on a budget with only 5 ingredients, this chicken and bean bowl is even better when left to sit overnight and enjoyed for lunch the next day.
BBQ butter bean and sweet potato pot
Did you know that butter beans are a low-density energy food? This means that they have a low-calorie count relative to their serving size! Add more of them to your diet to help you maintain a healthy weight. We love serving our butter bean and sweet potato pot with couscous or quinoa. Yum!
Black bean burgers
Whether you’re looking for a great veggie burger option or are just keen to try something new, our black bean burgers should be at the top of your list. We made the patties from black beans because their rich, earthy flavour mimics that of meat. If you can’t find any, red kidney beans will also do the trick!
Spicy bean chilli today. Sloppy joes tomorrow!
One of the best ways to cut the costs on your grocery bill is to make dinners where you can use the leftovers to make an equally great meal the next day! Whip up our vegetarian bean chilli tonight and use the leftovers on sloppy joes with home-made rolls tomorrow.
Bacony beans
If ever there was a braai side to take centre stage, this is it. So light up those coals, gather the troops and tuck into our incredible bacony beans.
Chilli-con-lentils with tortilla chips
We reinvented this meaty classic with a delicious vegetarian twist. Swap the mince out for protein-packed lentils. Scoop our chilli-con-lentils with crunchy tortilla chips and you’ll have a Mexican feast on your hands for meat-free Monday.
Chicken and kidney bean enchiladas
Beans are anything but boring, especially when they are mixed into this Mexican classic. Our black bean enchiladas are filled with rich wintery staples such as tomatoes, peppers and spices. We finish ours off in the oven, to get that golden cheesy topping we all know and love. Dig in!
