"We are dedicated to cruelty-free living through a vegetarian - vegan lifestyle. Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!"
(Beans, Pinto) Pinto beans are so named because of their characteristic spots. Pinto beans are related to kidney beans, but, in our opinion, they have a stronger flavor. They are a native of Mexico and are used in many of their recipes. Pinto beans can also be pureed and used in dips, as a soup base, or to thicken soups and sauces. The actual size of the beans can be seen in the cup to the left. See the nutritional charts for raw and cooked pinto beans below:

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
