 ORGANIC
BEANS
Beans
are a nutritional power house and a great addition to any
diet. For example, Pinto Beans are chalk full of essential
protein and amino acids and make a healthy, cost-effective
meat substitute. A single, one-cup serving of black beans
provides nearly 15 grams of fiber and 15 grams of protein
which is equivalent to the amount in 2 ounces of a meat like
chicken or a fish like salmon. Additionally, beans are gluten
free.
At Aunt
Penny’s we begin with only the highest quality, organic
canning beans. To further ensure excellence we purchase each
bean specifically by growing region and perform both field
and lab tests to insure superior products. Aunt Penny’s
offers a variety of beans all of which are organically certified
by the USDA and CCOF our third party certifying agency.

Also known as chickpeas, this bean is one of the earliest

Aunt
Penny’s Organic Great Northern Beans:
Great Northern Beans are a delicately flavored white bean
related to the kidney bean and the pinto bean. Though called
a white bean, the color of Great Northern Beans tends toward
cream with a shape that is similar to a lima bean. Any recipe
that uses other white beans like navy beans or cannellini
beans can be made with Great Northern Beans instead. They
are great at absorbing flavor and will easily take on the
spices or herbs used in cooking. Common Growing Region: Midwest.
