A favorite of the BBQ and picnic set, Bush's Zero Sugar Added Baked Beans deliver a flavor reminiscent of the original with a pleasing texture and consistency. With no added sugar, these baked beans are a great option for families and individuals looking to limit the sweet stuff.
WHY IT EARNED THE GH SEAL
These baked beans are hearty and satisfying, with a balance of mild sweetness and savory goodness, making them a versatile vegan protein boost for any meal.
- AFFORDABLE PANTRY STAPLE When it comes to cost effective, nutritious options, canned beans are hard to beat. While meat can be up to 10 times more expensive and stays fresh for only a limited time, these beans offer a low-cost, protein-rich alternative, and their extended shelf life means less waste. In other words, they’re an easy, budget-friendly way to add flavor and nutrition to your meals without breaking the bank.
- VERSATILE SIDE The sweet-savory flavor of these baked beans complements a wide variety of dishes. They pair perfectly with everything from roasted meats and sautéed greens to baked potatoes, quinoa bowls and even tangy slaws. Whether served with pasta dishes, veggie stir-fries or hearty soups, these beans bring a balanced flavor that elevates any meal. Our experts in the Test Kitchen and Nutrition Lab were impressed that, despite having zero added sugar, the beans' taste was surprisingly similar to standard Bush’s beans. A full serving felt hearty and satisfying with the right amount of sweetness.
- PROTEIN PUNCH Bush’s Zero Sugar Added Baked Beans provide a delicious source of protein, key for body repair and maintenance, and are great for vegetarians and vegans looking for a plant-based source. Each ½ cup serving is 120 calories and delivers 7 grams of protein, making it a lower-calorie alternative to some meat and dairy options, without sacrificing nutrition.
- FILLING FIBER Most Americans don’t meet their daily fiber needs, which is essential for good health. Baked beans can be a great way to increase fiber intake, boasting an impressive 12 grams of fiber per ½ cup serving—something the experts in the Nutrition Lab found remarkable. This fiber not only supports heart health but also helps regulate blood sugar levels and promotes satiety.
