This Snickerdoodle Hummus is a delightful bean-based dessert or tasty snack. Enjoy with fresh fruit and graham crackers to dip, spread on toast, or eat straight out of the food processor with no shame. 🍎 🫘 Recipe video included! Check out the link in my bio. I love using Mayocoba beans in this recipe because they are SO creamy and delicious, and I can get them locally. @co_proud @coloradodrybeans @coagriculture #ALegumeaDay #Hummus #DessertHummus #SnickerdoodleHummus #EatLocal #MayocobaBeans #Beans #Legumes #DryBeans #LovePulses #Pulses #ColoradoBeans #CleanEating #Vegan #Vegetarian #HealthyDessert #Snickerdoodle #Recipe #Food #Foodie #LegumeLady #Foodstagram #GlutenFree #PlantBased #HealthySnacks #Healthy #EatMoreBeans #ColoradoProud

Crabby Chickpea Salad is simple, fast, flavorful, and easy to personalize - what's not to love? 😁 Plus! It's been a long time since I posted a recipe because, well, life. 🤷‍♀️ To celebrate, this post comes with my first RECIPE VIDEO!

Beans are wonderful for the planet! 🫘 💚🌎 To celebrate Earth Day and beans, enjoy this graphic and check out Stephen Colbert's amazing opening monologue from 4/20. (And no, those are not potatoes. They are beans with superhero capes, to recognize all they do for our planet. Fitting for Earth Day, right?) @colbertlateshow @stephenathome thank you for beginning your 4/20 skit not with reference to what many may expect but instead with BEANS. Intrigued, anyone? Check out the first minute - video linked to in the post in my bio. #EarthDay #ALegumeaDay #beans #pulses #lovepulses #BeanstotheRescue #sustainability #legumes

HOW COOL IS THIS?! Bean podcasts! 🫘🎙️ BBC's The Food Programme did 2 podcasts all about legumes! Listen to hear why legumes are so fantastic and how other countries approach beans. Thank you @bbcfoodprog 😍👏 To commemorate this glorious occasion and all the love beans are getting, I have created another lovely graphic for you all. I know, my incredible talent for graphic design never ceases to amaze… 🤭 A shout out to Amelia of @boldbeanco and @kenalbala for starring in amazing interviews! And another shout out to amazing bean companies I mentioned in my accompanying website post (link in bio): @sheridanacres @primarybeans @8_trackfoods #beanpodcast #podcasts #podcast #ALegumeaDay #legumes #vegetarian #flexitarian #lovepulses #beans #drybeans #sustainability #cleaneating #BBC #TheFoodProgramme #LegumeLady #pulses #learn #ilovebeans

Beans are finally having their moment! 🤩🥳😍 Need proof? The bean emoji was recently released. No doubt this was the solid proof you were seeking. You're welcome. (*Insert bean emoji here, which tragically does not seem to be working yet on Instagram.*) To celebrate the glory of beans, we held the first Colorado Bean Summit earlier this month (March 2022). It was an honor to be a part of this as both a speaker and a panelist! 😊 Read about the Colorado Bean Summit, check out the videos by the Governor of Colorado and by professional chefs competing for the most delicious bean dishes, and share your ideas of what you would like to see in future bean summits. 🍽️ Click on the link in my bio for all this and more. Just for you, I am also including a very flattering photo of me presenting at the Colorado Bean Summit. 😏 Swipe for that gem. 💎 YAY BEANS!! 👏 #ALegumeaDay #LegumeLady #ColoradoBeans #ColoradoDryBeans #legumes #pulses #lovepulses #ColoradoBeanSummit #LegumeLife #9News #Denver #Colorado @coloradodrybeans @coagriculture @coloradoproduce @co_proud @msudenver_hospitality @9newsdenver @kyleclark9news @govofco @thehappeningkitchen @belengarcia_b

February is an important month for beans! ❤️ For starters, February 10th is World Pulses Day. 🌎 Get excited and check out this quick post on fun things to do to celebrate pulses, link in bio. https://alegumeaday.com/happy-world-pulses-day/ Plus, what better way to show people you love them than sending them beans, cooking up a beany recipe for them, or… writing them a bean Valentine?! ✍️ Check out these adorable bean and pulse food puns and then head to @foodsmartcolorado to download the PDFs. @csuextension Tag a friend you want to send a pulse food pun to but - let's be honest - probably won't make it to the post office to actually do that. (No judgment, I'm right there with you. 😬) This way though, at least we fellow bean lovers will know we are thinking of one another! 🥰 #WorldPulsesDay #lovepulses #pulses #legumes #drybeans #beans #valentinesday #foodpuns #CSUExtension #FoodSmart #FoodSmartColorado

I am pretty convinced that chickpea flour is magical. 🪄 It is one of my favorite ingredients, and not only because it is made from pulses, but because it can do anything! Like make this Savory Mini Chickpea Bread, for instance. 😋 Check the link in my bio for the recipe! WHILE YOU'RE HERE. Let's play a fun (wishful thinking on my part?) game. I was experimenting with angles because photographing chickpeas on Saturday night is my idea of living it up. 📸 Plus, it is an ideal form of procrastination that still allows you to feel slightly productive. Swipe to see photos 2 and 3 - I prefer one and my husband prefers the other. Any guesses who likes which photo, and why? Let me know in the comments below! 👇 #ALegumeaDay #LegumeLady #chickpeaflour #beans #chickpeas #garbanzobeans #lovepulses #pulses #legumes #plantbased #cleaneating #vegetarian #flexitarian #baking #chickpeabread

I am beyond thrilled that beans finally seem to be having their moment! 🤩 Plus, I am confident this moment will stay because everyone will realize beans are the perfect food - delicious, nutritious, great for the planet, and indeed the list goes on. Recently, I had the privilege of writing an article for Colorado State University News, SOURCE. @coloradostateuniversity @csuextension You can read the article on my website or see it on SOURCE.

January 6th is National Bean Day! And what better way to celebrate than listening to songs all about beans? Enjoy a bowl of beans while rocking out to these tunes. 🎶 Link in bio. Yes, I know. Looking at this fantastic graphic, you will likely think I am a graphic designer. But no, just a very artistically talented *cough* PhD student passionate about legumes! 😁 Shoutout to @abbersnail @ranchogordo @bushsbeans @joshgroban - thanks for helping spread the bean love! #BeanDay #NationalBeanDay #alegumeaday #legumes #lovepulses #beans #NationalBeanDay #pulses #plantbased #beansong @usdrybeans

Happy (almost) 2022, everyone! 😁 To kick off the new year right, are you looking for DELIGHTFUL and super simple, no-bake cereal bars you can enjoy at home or on-the-go? (Hint: yes, you are. 👍) Well congratulations, you found them! Whip up a batch of these Peanut Butter and Honey Cereal Bars and dig in. Check out the recipe, link in bio. Of course, you can make them with a cereal like Cheerios. Or, better yet, you can really embrace all the joy beans have to offer in 2022 by using @lovegrown - which is a bean-based cereal! I can't be the only one incredibly excited about that, right? #alegumeaday #cerealbars #peanutbutter #vegetarian #lovegrown #beans #legumes #pulses #lovepulses #cereal #onthego #cleaneating #simplerecipes #breakfastbars #peanutbutterbars

Beany Squash Boats are flavorful, nutritious, and beautiful.** This makes them a great main dish for: 1.) holiday tables, 2.) dinner even when it's not a holiday but you are craving a satisfying blend of fall flavors, and... 3.) breakfast. You may question me on this last one, but don't knock it until you try it. I find them a delightful and hearty way to start the day. 🌄    **See photo for proof of beauty, and if you think it is ugly please feel free to keep that to yourself. 😁 The recipe is more of a roadmap - switch up amounts and flavors to suit your taste. 😋 I would love to hear how you make it your own.

Do you have any holiday traditions in your family? 🎄 When I was younger, we would line the stairs with stuffed holiday bears, dogs, snowmen, and more, and Mom would take our annual "Holiday Stair Photo." I was reminiscing about that the other day and came across this gem of a photo (see 'Then' photo below). What's that you say? Yes, I know - between the missing tooth, stylish holiday sweater, and stuffed animals, it is glaringly apparent I was one of the cool kids. 😏    Naturally, this find inspired me to create a reenactment that represents my life these days. So, please enjoy this "Then and Now" photo. 📷 Indeed, we really do have this many beans and other pulses in our home. In fact, we have more. Dreams. Come. True. 🤩 Anyway. Happy holidays, everyone. 😊☃️ May the upcoming year be one of health, happiness, and beany wonderfulness! Also, a special shoutout to some of the great beans featured in this photo! @8_trackfoods @sheridanacres @bobsredmill @rancho_gordo @coloradodrybeans Check out my post (a very quick read!) for another awesome bean stair photo.

Black bean brownies are always a fantastic idea. 😁 But if you're looking to ring in the season (it is December 1st, after all), these Fudgy Peppermint Black Bean Brownies are the way to go! They are perfect for holiday baking and sharing healthier - but still delicious - treats with family and friends. 🎄 Plus, it's always fun and earns you LOTS of cool points to say you bake with beans, trust me. 😉 Recipe in my bio! https://alegumeaday.com/fudgy-peppermint-black-bean-brownies/ On a more "serious note," I have a terrible but true confession to make. I hate the chocolate mint combo. 😬 Like, really despise it.

Black bean brownies are always a fantastic idea. 😁 But if you're looking to ring in the season (it is December 1st, after all), these Fudgy Peppermint Black Bean Brownies are the way to go! They are perfect for holiday baking and sharing healthier - but still delicious - treats with family and friends. 🎄 Plus, it's always fun and earns you LOTS of cool points to say you bake with beans, trust me. 😉 Recipe in my bio! https://alegumeaday.com/fudgy-peppermint-black-bean-brownies/ On a more "serious note," I have a terrible but true confession to make. I hate the chocolate mint combo. 😬 Like, really despise it.
