Kidney beans are a red bean shaped like a kidney. They are used in many dishes around many parts of the world. They are used in Mexican and Spanish foods such as burritos, tacos and Spanish rice. They are also used in chili dishes and in foods served in Louisianna such as Red Beans and Rice.

Red beans — including small red beans and dark red kidney beans — are a good source of iron, phosphorus and potassium. They're also an excellent low-fat source of protein and dietary fiber.

Dark red kidney beans are used in soups, cold bean salads, and chili. Light red kidney beans are large, kidney-shaped beans with light red/pink glossy skin. They have a firm texture, and they hold up well in soups or other dishes that cook for a long time.

This cookbook contains a wide variety of delicious kidney bean recipes.
