Convenience Meal
Beans are one of the most versatile foods around and whether they are eaten alone or jazzed up and combined with other ingredients, they really can be enjoyed at any time of the day.
Beans around the clock
One of the great things about baked beans is that they are so quick and easy to prepare – a couple of minutes in a saucepan or the microwave and dinner is ready. Baked beans are also the ideal food for novice chefs. Even the most inexperienced cook can open a can and use a toaster – a fact that comforts many mothers when their children first leave home.
Bring on Breakfast
Beans are perfect for the most important meal of the day, as their slow-releasing carbohydrates will keep you going until lunchtime. The classic bacon and eggs combo goes fantastically well with baked beans and it is easy to turn this into a healthy option by poaching the eggs and grilling the bacon. For a relaxing alternative weekend brunch, try the recipe for Bean, Mushroom and Brie-filled Pancakes.
