Beans beans beans… 🫘 We all need to incorporate more, if you listen to the Secrets of the Blue Zones, where they live long and thrive. I’m loving crisped Butterbeans in olive oil and garlic granules, alongside my eggs and crispy chilli oil for lunch, but a family friendly batch idea is to blitz a can of white beans with your passata before you add to a bolognese sauce. It doesn’t alter the taste much, just lends creaminess alongside more fibre, protein and gut goodness.
Highly recommend a watch on Netflix too if you haven’t already… Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones Dan Buettner
