Beans

Beans are a delicious way to add a ton of fiber and nutrition to any menu. This collection includes fast and slow methods covering a variety of cuisines.

Put your Instant Pot to work to create perfectly tender beans in a fraction of the time with my Instant Pot Mexican Pinto Beans or Instant Pot Baked Beans.

When you're not in a hurry there's nothing like a pot of old school Baked Beans from Scratch to take you back in time!

Chilled sides include the popular reader favorite Homemade Three Bean Salad.
