Curried White Kidney Beans with Herb & Garlic Mashed Potatoes

This post is in partnership with Love Canadian Beans.

Choosing Canadian beans is a simple and sustainable way to incorporate beans into my weekly meal routine. This Curried White Kidney Beans recipe does just that because it’s quick and easy to make! I appreciate the versatility of beans and how they make for easy substitutes to meals especially when I’m pressed for time.

As a world leader in bean production, Canada exports high-quality beans to over 70 countries! Canadian bean farmers spend time innovating and investing in research in order to improve farming practices and help take care of the environment and communities in which they farm. There is such a vast abundance of foods grown in Canada and you can show support for locally

grown foods by choosing Canadian Beans.
