Beans and Legumes
Much like canned fruits and vegetables, you are going to want to search for organic varieties from brands that promise to use clean cans and non-GMO ingredients. That ensures that the beans you are eating are full of nutrients instead of chemicals. You can stock up on all kinds of beans—black, garbanzo, kidney, adzuki, and more. Lentils and other legumes, like peanuts and peas, are also prized by survivalists for their rich protein content.
Beans are an excellent source of energy, protein, and fiber. They can be used in baking and other recipes. For example, if you have black beans, you can make rice and beans (a complete protein meal), mash them up and use as a brownie batter, or eat them raw in a salad. You can also sprout beans. In 5 days, you can get green, crunchy sprouts to add to soups, salads, and sandwiches.
