Red Beans, Canned and Drained

EverydayCannedDrained

Canned red beans are a convenient and readily available source of plant-based protein and fiber. The canning process softens the beans, making them quicker to prepare than dried beans, though it can slightly reduce certain nutrient levels. Draining the beans before use helps to reduce sodium content, which is often added during the canning process, and removes excess starch, which can improve digestibility and flavor.
