For so many, this is a childhood favorite and one your kids will love. However, the traditional version for franks and beans is loaded with conventional grain fed beef/bacon and pinto beans (and a whole bunch of sugar for most recipes). This version is super clean and packs a very beneficial fiber punch with the white kidney beans*. Enjoy!
Serve these with a fresh salad dressed with our home-made italian dressing!
