Description
Organic red kidney beans are native to the Americas and are one of the most popular bean varieties. They have a firm yet creamy texture and a full-bodied flavour which makes them a great choice for chili, soups and salads. Rich in nutrients and protein, red kidney beans are known for their versatility and are commonly used in vegan cooking recipes. These red kidney beans are also fair trade.
How to Use
Red kidney beans and rice: In a large pot over medium heat, add onion, bell pepper and celery. Cook until vegetables are tender and slightly browned for about 8-10 minutes. Add garlic and cook for one more minute, until fragrant. Add parsley, thyme, paprika, salt and pepper, and stir. Cook for one minute. Add kidney beans, bay leaves and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and cover with a lid. Lower heat and simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the lid, let simmer uncovered for 15 minutes. While the beans are cooking, make rice or quinoa. Optional: scoop about 1/4 of the beans in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Return to pot and stir.
