What do I use in white bean recipes?
There are several types of beans that fall under the "white bean" category: cannellini beans, great northern beans, navy beans, and baby lima beans. While they may have slightly differing nutrient profiles, you can use any of them interchangeably in this list of recipes!
Can I use dried beans in these recipes?
These recipes all use canned beans because they are so convenient! They are already cooked and only need to be rinsed, making meal time so much quicker. If you have a bag of dried beans you would like to use, I recommend cooking them first according to the package directions. Cooked beans can always be frozen, so this is a great meal prep option to save money!
