Black Beans

Black beans come with high amounts of fiber, protein, phytonutrients, folate, potassium, and vitamin B6. These all work together to bring down cholesterol levels and lower the risk for heart disease. They go really well in burritos, soups, and other side dishes! Don’t worry, they have low fat content so they can make you feel full for a longer time and ultimately aid in weight loss.
