Canned Black Bean Recipes

Canned black beans are an essential pantry staple in our house. I tend to buy them in bulk and feel slightly insecure if I don’t have at least four cans at any time.

Packed with protein and fiber, black beans are a super versatile legume. With a deep, earthy flavor and creamy texture, they work well as a tasty addition to a chopped salad or the featured ingredient in Best Canned Black Beans Recipe or Black Bean Soup.

 As long as we have a few cans of black beans in our house, I feel confident I’ll be able to make something for dinner. Below is my ever-growing list of recipes that include black beans.

  • Black Bean Soup
  • Best Canned Black Beans Recipe 
  • Southwestern Black Bean Stuffed Tomatoes
  • Black Bean and Corn Salad with Honey and Line Dressing
  • Mexican Chopped Salad with Lime Cilantro Vinaigrette
  • Southwestern Stuffed Summer Squash
