Hello Friends! Are you feeling the busyness of the season? I hope you are taking some time for yourself when you can. One of the ways to do this is to plan on quick meal ideas for those nights when you want to have a little extra time to yourself.

We have had a lot of busy evenings lately. Thank goodness I have BUSH’S® Savory Beans to help me make the weeknight dinner process quick. Honestly, this recipe is so easy and delicious and the entire meal only takes a few ingredients.

I went to Walmart the other day to pick up a few ingredients for the week. I did not know that BUSH’S had come out with some savory bean styles recently. We loved BUSH’s because the flavor is always there and they are always quick to make. I decided to try BUSH’S® Savory Beans for a delicious “heat and eat” pairing for a recipe I am sharing below. I found the beans in the Hispanic Foods aisle at Walmart.

I have to tell you that I could not help picking up a couple of cute spring decor items while I was at Walmart. I just love that I can find my all weekly dinner ingredients. household items and some fun, inexpensive decor items and staples all in one stop.

If you have not yet tried BUSH’S® Savory Beans, they are made from the best beans simmered in delicious savory sauces, which come in three flavors:

Black Bean Fiesta
Southwestern Style Pinto Beans
Southern Style White Beans

The ideas for some great recipes with these savory beans are endless! BUSH’S products are always delicious, real and honest, made with simple ingredients. Did you know that BUSH’S Beans are naturally gluten-free and cholesterol-free too?
