Beans

Beans, beans, they’re good for your heart. The more you eat, the more you…You know the rest. And the saying is true! (At least about the heart). Organic Baked Beans are a quick, tasty meal for adults and kids alike and excellent for stable energy levels.

Black Beans, Cannellini Beans and Organic Mixed Beans are plant-based alternatives for beef chilli and help you get a healthy dose of vitamins and minerals.

If you fancy a snack, Edamame Beans are a nice change from nuts and still have the benefits of amino acids and antioxidants. For anyone who is adventurous, you can try making homemade soy milk, falafels or hummus from our delicious Organic Soya Beans.

Lentils

Lentils have a tantalising bite when cooked in heart-warming dishes such as Dahl or soup. Why not mix Organic Red Lentils and Green Lentils for variety? You can also experiment and cook our Speckled Lentils in stock or have them as a healthy side dish to sausages. 

Peas

Chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, taste like a blend of peas and beans. They’re incredibly high in protein and make a great meat substitute. Try Grape Tree’s dried Chickpeas or opt for Biona Organic Chickpeas in water.

Yellow Split Peas work well with lentils while giving a dish variety of colours, flavours, and nutritional benefits. Add to Dahl, curries or as a rice replacement.
