Jump for joy! Help celebrate National Bean Day with delicious Easy Bean meals



Celebrating National Bean Day – January 6 - is easy: simply eat beans, in all shapes and sizes if possible.
Christina Baskerville is managing director of Easy Bean  - - Easy Bean was established in 2007.
She says: “Easy Bean meals are high in protein, fibre and low in. Research shows that eating beans can help control weight. Mt meals are all natural, low in calories and contain two to three of your five-a-day vegetable portions.”
The Easy Bean range gourmet meal pots are: New Mexican Chilli, Moroccan Tagine, French Cuisinées, Indian Sambar Dhal, African Palava and Spanish Puchero, plus seasonal special Pasta e Fagioli.
Different beans are featured in each of the recipes.
The origin of National bean Day is unclear although January 6 may have bean chosen because it commemerates the death in 1884 of Gregor Mendel, the Austrian botanist whose pioneering work on the science of genetics involved teasting garden peas.


Christina and her team have come up with five great ways to celebrate National Bean Day:

-      Share bean recipes with a friend
-      Eat an Easy Bean meal
-      Read Jack and the Beanstalk to your children
-      Plant a bean in your garden
-      Devise your own bean-based meal


Easy Bean meals are prepared in a converted dairy farm in the foodie haven of Castle Cary, Somerset. They are available from many branches of Waitrose, Booths stores, independent shops and online via Ocado.com and naturalgrocery.co.uk

Easy Bean meals retail from £2.99 and are available from Waitrose stores, Booths stores plus independents and online via Ocado.com, Waitrose.com and naturalgrocery.co.uk
