Move over, pintos. The Bayo bean, or frijol bayo, delivers a sweet, earthy flavor and a deliciously creamy texture, making it a team favorite. Uncooked, the beans are a shade of pinkish brown; while cooked, they’re closer to a tan. Add a little avocado leaf or some fresh epazote to your pot for extra depth of flavor.

Bayo Beans are especially delicious refried and smothered over enfrijoladas. Don’t overlook the broth either, which is quite heartwarming on its own.
Beans + Corn
These nutritional heavy hitters have a symbiotic relationship. The complementary cultivation of corn, beans and squash is sometimes known as the “three sisters” of agriculture — the milpa, in Spanish. Derived from the Nahuatl words milli (“cultivated land”) and pan (“in”), milpa refers to both a traditional Mesoamerican corn field as well as the companion planting of corn, beans, and squash to balance the nutrients in the soil. When grown together, each plant fosters sustainable soil health, and when consumed together, they constitute a fully balanced diet.
