Navy Beans

Navy beans also called Haricot beans have an amazing nutrition profile.  They have 7.5 grams protein for 1/2 cup and are a source of many important micronutrients, including folate, iron, zinc, magnesium, and calcium.  They are high in soluble and insoluble fiber making them slow to digest and great for a healthy digestive system. 
Nutrition aside, these classic beauties are a great base to add chard, roasted mushrooms, garlic and a good olive oil.
