Serving Suggestions
Side Dish: Serve them up alongside your favorite main dishes like grilled chicken, steak, or tacos. They’re a great way to add protein and fiber to any meal.
Tacos and Burritos: Use these beans as a filling for tacos or burritos. You can add it to the meat of your choice or replace the meat altogether. Add cheese, avocado, salsa, and any other toppings you love for a delicious meal.
Rice and Beans: Keep it simple with classic rice and beans! Add a squeeze of lime, some chopped cilantro, and a sprinkle of cheese.
Storage & Reheating Instructions
Refrigerate leftover beans in an airtight container or up to 5 days. The flavors actually get better as they sit, so they’re great for meal prep!
Freeze completely cooled beans in freezer-safe bags or containers. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheat on the stove in a pot over medium heat. Add a splash of water or broth if they seem too thick, and stir occasionally until warmed through, about 5-7 minutes.
Reheat in the microwave in a microwave-safe dish. Cover with a damp paper towel and heat in 30-second increments, stirring in between for even heating, until they’re hot.
