Swap in Beans for Meat this week

Beans may get a bad rap because of that old childhood rhyme, but they are so good for your HEALTH and your wallet. In fact, bean-based meals can give you all the complete proteins you need at a fraction of the cost of beef, chicken, or fish. Beans and other legumes are power foods; they're rich sources of soluble fiber and nutritious complex carbs. Start with one meatless meal a week, working toward one a day. You'll reduce your exposure to toxins that build up in animal products and save cash!
