I don’t subscribe to a lot of things, but I am a proud member of the Rancho Gordo bean club. Every quarter, I receive a shipment of beautiful, flavorful heirloom legumes that I gently simmer for soups, stews, salads, pastas, and more. (They aren’t paying me to write this—I just genuinely really love their beans.) The steady stream of beans throughout the year means I eat a lot of them—and am constantly looking for inspiration.
Luckily for me, there are plenty of great bean recipes on our site. Below, we’ve gathered the bean dishes our readers have saved the most with MyRecipes, our free tool for saving and organizing recipes. They include a comforting Neapolitan soup, hearty New Orleans-style red beans and rice, a classic three-bean salad, and rustic Italian bean and pasta soup, among others. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to spill the beans and get cooking!
