Butter Beans
Dried butter beans: soak and simmer at home and they swell to an impressive size, with a tender, creamy interior that absorbs tomato sauces, broths and spices.
Canned butter beans: cooked and ready in minutes – firm enough for salads, soft enough to mash into a dairy-free side or a quick stew.
Ways to use them
Roast them with olive oil and spices for a crunchy snack, blend them with garlic and lemon as an alternative to hummus, or add them to a vegetable soup to turn it into a main meal. High in plant protein and fibre, they keep you full for longer.
