Eat more beans. Please.

Beans are high in protein, efficient to grow, and can even improve soil health. They cost less than conventional or new plant-based meats, and they’re increasingly getting attention among foodies.

If they are dried, soak it overnight and cook in on a preassure cooker. if they are fresh its easier to cook.

  I add some baking soda to the soak or boiling pot so they’ll soften up faster. explained here.
