About Beans, baked, canned, plain or vegetarian

Canned baked beans are navy (haricot) beans slow-simmered in a sweet, tangy tomato sauce and sold ready to heat in tins. A breakfast and barbecue staple on both sides of the Atlantic, the plain or vegetarian version skips the traditional piece of salt pork, so the sauce does the flavoring.

For a convenience food they earn their keep: about 94 calories per 100 grams, with roughly 5 grams of plant protein and 4 grams of fiber, much of it the soluble kind beans are known for. The catch is the sauce, which brings around 8 grams of sugar and a fair amount of added sodium (about 340 milligrams per 100 grams), so the numbers vary a lot between brands.

They are hard to beat for speed: spooned onto toast, served alongside eggs and sausages, or stirred into a chili or casserole. Choosing a reduced-sugar or reduced-salt tin trims the extras while keeping the beans' fiber and protein.
