I have made Beans a top level category here at MOM!MOM! because they can be
anything from a dip to a main course.  We should all try and add some beans to
our diet everyday.  They are a great source of fiber, protein and antioxidants,
while being low in fat and calories.  On top of all of this they can help keep your
grocery bill in hand. They are close to the perfect food. This section contains
links to all the bean recipes on the site and I will be adding more soon.
