Black Beans

Black Beans, Black Turtle Beans & Refried Beans:

This black beans collection covers several formats for everyday cooking, Mexican-inspired meals and plant-based dishes. The range includes canned black beans in spring water, no-added-salt and organic options, dried black turtle beans, refried black beans and a seasoned black bean and corn snack. Brands represented include Wattie’s, Edgell, Macro, Woolworths, La Morena and Farm By Nature.

Canned Black Beans for Easy Meal Preparation:

Ready-to-use canned black beans form an important part of the collection. Wattie’s Black Beans in Spring Water come in 400g cans and provide a source of protein and iron and an excellent source of dietary fibre when drained. They can be used in burritos, tacos and salads, as well as other savoury recipes.

Edgell also offers canned black beans, while Macro Organic and Woolworths provide 420g no-added-salt options. The Macro Organic black beans are a source of fibre and protein with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.

Dried Black Turtle & Refried Black Beans:

For shoppers who prefer dried legumes, Farm By Nature Black Turtle Beans come in a 1kg pack. These dried black beans are sourced from Canada and provide a useful bulk pantry option for recipes where you want to soak and cook the beans yourself.

La Morena Refried Black Beans offer a distinctly different format. Supplied in a 440g tin, these prepared Mexican-style beans can be used in burritos or served alongside rice.

Black Bean Snacks & Meal Ideas:

The collection also includes Edgell Snack Time Black Beans with charred corn, lime and herbs. This 70g seasoned combination does not require draining and can be eaten on its own or added to a larger meal.

Choosing the Right Black Beans:

Choose canned black beans when convenience is the priority, dried black turtle beans when you prefer cooking from dry, or refried beans for Mexican dishes requiring a softer prepared texture. No-added-salt and organic canned choices provide additional options for specific preferences. Across the range, black beans can be used in nachos, quesadillas, tacos, burritos, salads, casseroles, soups, dips and bean-based burger patties.
