Trader Joe's Black Beans

With a rich and earthy taste and soft yet hearty texture, it’s no wonder the humble Black Bean is a dietary staple in Latin America, the Caribbean, and the American Southwest. Soaking and cooking dry Black Beans is an hours-long process unbefitting busy weeknight cooking, but with Trader Joe’s Black Beans in your pantry, this cost-conscious legume goes from the can to your plate in minutes.

Aside from a just-right amount of salt, our Black Beans are unseasoned, giving you the ideal canvas for quick and satiating Bean-based dishes of both the vegetarian and meat-containing varieties. Simply season and heat as desired, and get to assembling filling—and delicious!—lunches and dinners. 

Season the Beans with our Chile Lime Seasoning Blend and serve with Spanish Style Rice for an extra quick and extra delicious meal. Mix them into a Southwestern-inspired salad with your greens of choice, cooked Roasted Corn, grilled Pollo Asado, Cilantro Salad Dressing, and cotija cheese. Or, season them with Cuban Style Citrusy Garlic Seasoning Blend and plate with warm Papas Rellenas and Plantain Crisps for Cuban-inspired eats.
