Legumes are a great source of vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins, iron, calcium and zinc as well being high in protein and dietary fibre.
For a real quick meal, try my “raid the fridge & pantry legume special.

3.Create a swimming pool for the legumes, about 5 cm of water above the existing vegies
4.Add in some beans
5.Bring to boil
6.Simmer for 30-45 minutes
