Anasazi beans have a characteristic white and maroon swirling pattern and are similar in shape and size to a large kidney bean. Anasazi beans have a full, slightly sweet bean flavor that is perfect for savory dishes or any bean recipe, particularly those with a southwestern or Latin American influence. From chili to soup to salads, anasazi beans bring their vibrant color and flavor to every dish. Anasazis can also be used as a substitute for pinto, kidney, and great northern beans.
