Organic Navy Beans

Like other common beans, navy beans originated in Central America thousands of years ago. As a portable and nutritious source of protein, they have remained popular throughout the ages and across the miles. Especially popular are variations of baked beans using navy beans. In France, traditional cassoulet incorporates navy beans, meat, and vegetables baked together in a casserole, hence the name. In Great Britain, navy beans baked in tomato sauce are popular served at breakfast. Boston baked beans are made with molasses and Canadian baked beans are made with maple syrup. Delicious!
