About Frijol
Frijoles, commonly known as beans, are a versatile and nutrient-rich staple in many cuisines, especially Latin American, Caribbean, and Mexican dishes. Packed with protein, fiber, and essential vitamins such as folate and iron, they are an excellent plant-based protein choice for vegetarians and vegans. Beans also provide complex carbohydrates, making them a steady source of energy, while their high fiber content supports digestion and heart health. Popular varieties include black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans, each offering distinct flavors and textures. While frijoles are naturally low in fat and cholesterol-free, they can vary in healthfulness depending on preparation; refried beans, for instance, may include added fats like lard. To maximize their benefits, they are best enjoyed in wholesome dishes such as soups, salads, or stews. Frijoles are a powerhouse of nutrition, making them a key ingredient in balanced diets across the globe.
