Organic Butter Beans 400g - Biona

Big, creamy organic butter beans in water, with no added salt or sugar. Cooked and ready for stews, soups, salads and mash.

Butter beans are the soft, mild ones - good at soaking up whatever they are cooked in. Simmer them in a tomato and chorizo stew, blitz them with garlic and olive oil as a hummus alternative, or warm them through with greens and a good glug of oil. Biona tin them in nothing but water, so you season them yourself. Drain and rinse before use.

Biona describe them as a good source of protein, iron and magnesium and rich in dietary fibre.
