Beans continue to be a dependable base for satisfying meals that feel approachable. Bush’s Recipe Beans are grown, cooked and canned in North America and are the best for bringing flavorful, feel-good meals to the table. Bush’s Recipe Beans add plant-based protein and fiber to any meal — nutrients that help make meals feel more filling and balanced, especially during the busy start of the year.

That interest in simpler cooking is showing up in the kinds of dishes people are making. Recipes that come together quickly are resonating with home cooks who want meals that feel easy and satisfying without extra time in the kitchen. A Greek Dense Bean Salad uses Bush’s Chick Peas and Bush’s Cannellini Beans for a bright, fresh dish, while a Sweet Potato Breakfast Bowl combines Bush’s Black Beans with roasted vegetables for a warm start to the morning.
