National Eat Beans Day

National Eat Beans Day (or National Eat Your Beans Day) occurs on July 3 each year, and we guarantee it will be a holiday that will give you a whole new appreciation for legumes as a food group. And if not, perhaps our fun facts and riddles will have you full of beans. Try this one on for size — ‘I am a bean, very lean. I am not fat, I’m sure of that. Like all beans, I’m small and round — but unlike others, I don’t grow in the ground’. Giving away the answer would be too easy, but we’ll give you a hint — this may be a kid’s favorite kind of bean. It may also surprise you to know that beans are not strictly classified as ‘veggies’ either since legumes by definition are any seeds or fruits that grow within pods or the edible pods themselves, which grow on leguminous plants (i.e. those belonging to the pea family). This opens up a whole world of beans to us, which should be exciting, especially for those who grew up being forced to eat beans as a vegetable.

History of National Eat Beans Day

Though the exact date and reason for National Eat Beans Day being made a holiday are not known, we do know that the history of the bean itself predates even the invention of the pots used to cook beans. Bean cultivation dates back as early as 7,000 years ago, making it a staple that has stood the test of time, and we’re not surprised. With amazing health benefits, legumes are plant-based, protein-packed powerhouses of nutrition. So this also means that they’re for everyone, no matter the diet or lifestyle choice. It’s very rare to find a person allergic to beans too, though some legumes can trigger allergic reactions, such as peanuts.

Beans are originally from wild vines which grow in Central and South America. This is known as the common bean, and since then, thousands of bean varieties exist today and are cultivated all over the world. They are one of the most versatile crops and can be grown almost anywhere. 5,000 years ago the lima bean and other varieties were a popular favorite among the Incas and Aztecs, and the popularity of beans is so much so that they are worth a mention in Homer’s “Iliad,” where he uses beans as a metaphor. Ancient Egyptians seem to have also been partial to beans and lentils, as paintings and physical evidence shows that bodies were buried with beans, to nourish them on their journey to the afterlife. By the 1500s, with the advent of trade via ships, beans began to reach all the corners of the globe and more varieties began to be cultivated. Though often viewed as a poor man’s food, beans have been an important source of nourishment for people in dire circumstances; such as the soldiers who fought in the First and Second World Wars, or the Europeans who were dying out due to the spread of the plague in Europe, during the Middle Ages. Who would have thought beans could be such lifesavers.

National Eat Beans Day FAQs

What are the healthiest beans to eat?

The top nine healthiest beans/legumes to eat are — chickpeas, lentils, peas, kidney beans, black beans, soybeans, pinto beans, navy beans, and peanuts.

Is it bad to eat beans at night?

Yes, eating beans at night is not recommended. This is because beans can cause indigestion or gas problems, so it’s better to stick to eating that bowl of chili during the daytime.

Is it okay to eat beans every day?

Yes! Not only are beans low in fat, but they are also great sources of protein and fiber, and they come packed with nutrients like iron, folate, calcium, and potassium. This can help protect against high cholesterol which may lead to heart disease. The recommended portion size of beans/lentils is 25-38 grams a day.

National Eat Beans Day Activities

Eat beans

Grow your own beanstalk

Fix up a care package

Yes, you guessed it. Sometimes simplicity is everything. In this case, we’re keeping it real simple, by telling you to go eat some beans — green, black, red, or yellow — the choice is yours. Boil them, bake them, saute them, mush them, or eat them raw; beans are bound to have your body thanking you for years to come.

Though we cannot guarantee a hen laying golden eggs at the end of it, we can guarantee that there’s nothing better than the feeling of eating your own home-grown produce. And what’s more, the golden glow of health which your beans will bring you is worth far more than any golden egg-laying hen!

One of the things we love about beans is how affordable (we daresay cheap even) they are. So why not take the time to gather some different types of legumes, a hand-written little booklet of recipes, and give them to a family who may need extra beans.

5 Recipes We Bet You Never Thought Used Beans

Beanie brownies

Honey-roasted chickpeas

Navy bean pesto

Bean burger

Alfredo sauce

These ooey-gooey delicious brownies come with a surprising twist — black beans are the star ingredient!

Step aside, caramel popcorn, as this delicious, crunchy snack takes over the coffee table at your next movie night.

Pureed navy beans with any greens can make an amazing and hearty pesto sauce.

All the flavor, all the protein, but not meat. Perfect for everyone, even those hardcore meat lovers.

White beans can make the perfect, silky alfredo sauce, which will cause all to go “mama mia”!

Why We Love National Eat Beans Day

Beans are healthy

Beans have a variety

Beans are cheap

If we have not said this enough times already, we will say it again — beans are so good for you. Not only are they amazing sources of protein and fiber, but they also contain folic acid, iron, potassium, and calcium, all of which are beneficial to prevent all sorts of medical conditions.

Some say that there are as many as 4,000 varieties of beans out there. If that doesn’t inspire you to start exploring and experimenting in the kitchen, we don’t know what will. Trying out different beans can also bring you one step closer to exploring a whole new cuisine or culture, and variety is the spice of life, after all.

We’re glad that beans were overlooked by the rich snobs throughout history so that we all can enjoy the delicious benefits of beans without feeling the pinch in our pockets. For something to be cheap and nutritious almost stretches belief.

Arroz de Coliflor y Camarones al Ajillo

El arroz de coliflor es una cena para dos bajos en carbohidratos y repleta de proteínas y vegetales. La coliflor tiene un sabor muy suave, por lo que no compite con el de los camarones al ajillo en este plato. Una comida sabrosa y baja en carbohidratos tiene que estar al principio de tu lista para las cenas entre semana. El énfasis aquí está en lo sabroso.

El arroz de coliflor -coliflor cruda finamente picada que parece granos- funciona como un gran telón de fondo para los otros sabores frescos de esta receta. Obtiene una fuerte dosis de limón, cáscara y jugo, además de un bono de espinacas apenas marchitas y tomates cherry. Complementado con camarones al ajillo, esta cena tiene un factor de delicicia muy rico.

El arroz de coliflor se ha convertido en un reemplazo popular de los granos para las personas que tienen alergias o que solo quieren reducir su consumo de granos con almidón. Puedes comprarlo ya preparado en la sección de alimentos congelados o hacerlo tú mism@. Listo: los supermercados se pusieron al día rápidamente con esta tendencia, y a menudo puedes encontrarla en la sección de productos preparados o envasados en el congelador. Es un paso menos, así que si tienes prisa, está es tu mejor opción. Hágalo usted mismo: es muy fácil hacerlo tú mism@ con un procesador de alimentos y un poco de coliflor picada. Congélalo: si eres ambicios@ o simplemente tienes una cabeza gigante de coliflor que no puedes usar de una vez, llévaela del procesador de alimentos al recipiente hermético del congelador. Se mantendrá bien en el congelador hasta por un par de meses. VARIACIONES: Cambia el arroz de coliflor: puede reemplazar con cualquier grano cocido que desees en esta receta si no estás de humor para coliflor, o simplemente quieres cambiarlo. Cambia los vegetales: usamos espinacas baby aquí, pero la col rizada o la acelga sería un buen cambio. Intercambia los camarones: con atún enlatado o algunas sobras de carne en rodajas como filete o chuletas de cerdo. Muy pronto obtendrás otro plato completamente diferente, ¡pero esa es la belleza de cocinar! ¿Aumentarlo? ¡Sí por favor hazlo! Sería una comida fácil y sencilla digna de compartir con amigos.

Ingredientes 1/4 taza de aceite de oliva, dividido 1/4 taza de cebolla roja picada 3 tazas de arroz de coliflor congelado, comprado en la tienda o casero 1/4 taza de jugo de limón, dividido 1/4 cucharadita de sal 1/8 cucharadita de pimienta negra molida 1/2 limón finamente rallado 2 puñados de hojas de espinacas baby (aproximadamente 2 tazas, empacadas) 8 tomates cherry, cortados a la mitad o en cuartos si son grandes 2 cucharadas de perejil picado 1 diente de ajo, pelado y en rodajas finas 8 a 10 camarones extra grandes, pelados y desvenados 1/2 cucharadita de pimentón 1/2 aguacate en rodajas (para decorar) Preparación Cocina la cebolla y el arroz de coliflor: En una sartén grande a fuego medio, agrega 2 cucharadas de aceite. Cuando el aceite brille, agrega la cebolla picada y cocina, revolviendo, durante 1 a 2 minutos, o hasta que la cebolla se ablande. Agrega el arroz de coliflor y 1/4 taza de agua a la sartén. Cocina, revolviendo con frecuencia, durante 5 minutos, o hasta que la coliflor pierda su sabor crudo. Agrega 2 cucharadas de jugo de limón, sal, pimienta y ralladura de limón. Agrega las espinacas y los tomates cherry: revuelve las espinacas en la coliflor y cocina por 3 minutos, o hasta que las espinacas apenas se marchiten. Agrega los tomates. Prueba y añade más sal y pimienta, si lo deseas. Retirar del fuego y reservar mientras cocinas los camarones. Cocina los camarones: en una sartén antiadherente lo suficientemente grande como para acomodar los camarones en una capa, agrega las 2 cucharadas restantes de aceite y el ajo. Coloca la sartén a fuego medio y cocina por unos 30 segundos, o solo hasta que el ajo chisporrotee. (Comienza calentando el ajo y el aceite al mismo tiempo en una sartén fría para evitar que el ajo se queme). Añade los camarones en una capa. Cocina durante 1 o 2 minutos por cada lado, o hasta que los camarones estén opacos en el centro. (El tiempo exacto de cocción depende del tamaño de los camarones). Retira la sartén del fuego y espolvorea con el pimentón. Agrega las 2 cucharadas restantes del jugo de limón y el perejil. Gira los camarones para cubrirlos bien con el aceite de limón y ajo. Ensambla los tazones: en dos tazones poco profundos, divide el arroz de coliflor. Cubre cada uno con la mitad de los camarones y decora con rodajas de aguacate. Servir tibio oa temperatura ambiente.

DINING DELICIOUS: TORO TORO RESTAURANT & BAR

By Rafa Carvajal

I have always enjoyed the food and cocktails at Toro Toro Restaurant & Bar, so I was happy to attend a special family-style dinner where I had the opportunity to sample several of Executive Chef Jean Delgado's delicious new dishes and specialty cocktail offerings that were a true celebration for all my senses. Toro Toro is the Pan-Latin steakhouse located inside the InterContinental Miami in the heart of Downtown Miami. Its new menu showcases the flavors, techniques and culinary nuances from the cuisines of the Caribbean Islands and the Americas.

My friend Robert and I started our Toro Toro feast with a couple of specialty cocktails, the Encierro crafted by Michael Lassandro with Woodford Reserve, Carpano Antica, Luxardo Maraschino, and walnut bitters in a smoked glass; and the Me Quemo with Don Q Añejo rum, Disaronno, almond milk, Coco Lopez, strawberry puree, pineapple, lime, Creole bitters, and torched anise. We sampled several delectable dishes from the cold and hot small plates: Grilled Octopus with cilantro sauce, salsa criolla, and fried yuca; Parmesan Crusted Sea Scallops with lemon butter sauce; Chicharron De Camarones with crispy shrimp, aji amarillo, avocado, and rocoto; Miyazaki Tartare with sweet chili, fried egg, and shaved radishes; Seared Ahi Tuna Tiradito Salad with frisée, pea tendrils, avocado cream, and wasabi dressing; Beet Salad with pistachio, orange segments, ricotta cheese, and aji amarillo vinaigrette; and Arroz Chaufa with fried rice, chicken, chorizo, steak, egg, and vegetables.

We then enjoyed some very enticing entrées from Toro Toro's Pan Latin Specials and Off The Wood-Burning Grill: Creekstone Farms - USDA Prime Beef 14 oz Prime Ribeye; Chipotle Miso Chilean Sea Bass with dashi broth, braised lettuce, asparagus, mushrooms, kabayaki sauce, and crispy lotus root; Family Size Chicken Paella with whole achiote chicken, sofrito, baby artichokes, and piquillo pepper; Charcoal Adobo Chicken with green rice, toasted almonds, cascabel jus, and grilled scallions; and Chuleta Kan Kan with arañitas, cilantro sauce, tomatillo kimchi, bibb lettuce, farrotto con gandules, and chorizo.

For dessert, we loved the very appropriately named La Bomba, a scrumptious chocolate sphere with fresh berries, dulce de leche and strawberry ice cream, cream cheese mousse, almond cookie crumbs, caramel, vanilla, and berry sauce.

Toro Toro Restaurant & Bar. InterContinental Miami. 100 Chopin Plaza. Miami

Week 4 in Ecuador

I can’t wait for classes to be over! I wish I had more time to explore the city of Quito everyday. This city is truly magical. It’s a shame it gets dark here so early. Friday of week 3, I woke up, went to school and had no idea where I’d end up by the end of the day. My friends and I wanted to end up at the beach, but we had heard Esmeraldas was a bit dangerous and dirty, Canoa had a bus traveling only at night, and Puerto Lopez was much too far. After our classes we packed our things and headed for the bus station. There we decided Perdernales was the place we’d go, for it was close and tranquil. While booking our hostal, we had a bit of a funny mistake. My friend had booked a hostal on the beach In Perdanales DOMINICAN REPUBLIC. This mistake was easily fixed though. We arrived in Perdernales at around seven and headed straight for our hostal. Afterwards, we hopped in a motor taxi and went to a restaurant where I enjoyed a little taste from home: Chuletas. The meal was incredibly tasty, my mouth is salivating just thinking about it. The next morning we rose and headed for the beach! Here we met new friends with the cutest of puppies. One was a Golden Retriever and the other was a baby German Shepard. Lina, the Golden Retriever loved to eat and fetch rocks, she was a cutie. Our friends took us by motorbike to a hidden peninsula where we enjoyed the day playing in the sand and soaking up the sun. Much of the beaches in Perdernales have trash everywhere and fishing boats take up a good section of the beach as well, so this peninsula was heaven sent. While walking through the rocks in the peninsula we unfortunately spotted a dolphin carcass. This image is something I will never forget, it haunted me. That evening we hit the town and ended up at a bar on the beach. It was my friend’s birthday, so we got a round of shots. Unfortunately being a tourist, the woman at the bar gave us top shelf alcohol; with each shot costing $8 a piece. The music was upbeat and fitting for the environment. We danced the night away together and headed for the beach once we all were tired. The beach at night is the most calming environment. The stars shine above you, while the waves crash upon the shore. We all headed home after this, to rest up for our next day. The rest of our trip was spent at the beach. It was my favorite part of the trip, for the beach is the only place I yearn to be at any moment. On Monday we headed back to Quito, and said a sad goodbye to our new friends. Week four at academia was good, but I haven’t noted a big improvement in my Spanish. As I said in my previous passage, I am confused about the tenses and when to use them. The amount of information we receive is a overwhelming. I think I could’ve absorbed all of it more if I studied constantly, but what’s the fun in that? I’m in Ecuador. The thought of leaving my host family makes me a bit sad. Over these past three weeks, they have truly became family to me. I love all of them so much. Juan sé, my brother, is a clown who never fails to make everyone laugh with his impressions. My mama Sonia is the sweetest lady with nothing but love in her heart. I’m glad to have been put with them for my time here. I’ve learned that Quito is a very large city, with very different parts. The people here are kind, everyone greets everyone. I can’t wait to return one day!

Ciao,

Taylor Watson
