About Loubia

Loubia is a hearty bean stew originating from North African and Mediterranean cuisines, particularly Algeria and Morocco. Typically made with white beans, tomatoes, onion, garlic, olive oil, and a blend of warm spices like cumin and paprika, Loubia is a flavorful, plant-based dish rich in nutrients. Packed with fiber, protein, and essential vitamins from the beans, it supports gut health and aids in maintaining energy levels. The tomatoes and garlic provide antioxidants, boosting immune function and heart health. Olive oil contributes healthy fats, which are beneficial for cardiovascular wellness. Depending on preparation style, Loubia may include lamb or beef, adding additional protein, though this increases fat content. Low in sugar and versatile for various diets, Loubia is a wholesome option that can be customized for vegetarian or vegan preferences while offering an array of flavors and nutritional benefits.
