Black Beans, Canned

Black Beans, Canned
(Black Beans, Canned) Canned black beans are a quick and easy way to enjoy this bean on salads and in "quick" recipes.  Do not buy canned black beans that have sugar or corn syrup added.  The major drawback to using canned black beans is the added salt, but pouring off the liquid before using them in a recipe will reduce some of the salt.  See the nutritional chart and recipes below.

Vegan FlagThe above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
