Bean Chips, Pico de Gallo

As far as snacks go, chips aren’t generally considered a good choice for anyone that adheres to a diet full of whole, natural foods. But Beanfields Pico de Gallo Bean and Rice Chips are different. These mild, salsa-flavored chips are corn-free, and made without a single one of the eight ingredients recognized by the FDA as potential allergens. They’re also gluten-free, vegan, and contain no GMOs or added sugar. Plus, Beanfields crisps pack 150 percent more protein, 200 percent more fiber and 36 percent less fat than your average tortilla chip. So go ahead and treat yourself to a snack without any of the guilt.

<p>Snacks don’t have to be filled with empty calories and zero nutritional benefits. Today’s options make it easy to satisfy cravings while adding a boost to your diet, too. And one way we love to make that happen? Beans. They’re not just for taco night anymore. Beanfields bakes beans into all of its snacks, and Thrive Market members can’t get enough. Member Kitty opened up a bag post-workout thinking she’d just snack on a few. (She ate the whole bag.) And Jessica says they’re approved by both her husband and 2-year-old. Beans have been a food staple around the world for thousands of years, and are featured in a range of global cuisines. From Latin dishes to Creole standbys, Tex-Mex fusions or Indian favorites, there’s a whole world of flavor to explore when beans are leading the way. </p>
<h2>The History of Beanfields</h2>



<p>Beanfields began in the family kitchen of founder Reed Glidden. What started as a fun experiment to see if beans could be baked into a chip took everyone by surprise—and <a href="https://thrivemarket.com/c/snacks"target="_blank">the snack aisle</a> by storm. Founded in Los Angeles, Beanfields works closely with Homeboy Industries, a training program for formerly gang-involved and incarcerated men and women, by donating 1 percent of its sales to help <a href="https://homeboyindustries.org/"target="_blank">this organization continue its work</a>. </p>
<h2>Beanfields Company Mission</h2>


<p>When Beanfields was founded, it started a friendly war on corporate snack foods. Believing healthier chips were within reach, the company set out to transform what snacktime could be, choosing wholesome ingredients like beans (of course), and <a href="https://thrivemarket.com/c/herbs-spices"target="_blank">plenty of herbs and spices</a> to make sure each chip is seasoned to perfection. </p>
<h2>Benefits of Beanfields</h2>


<p>Beanfields has close relationships with its farmers (many of whom have been with the brand since the beginning). That means the company knows exactly what’s happening at every step of the supply chain. All of its beans are grown in the United States and are Non-GMO Project Certified. Unlike some other crops, beans require less water, making the ingredient a more sustainable choice. Not only that, but beans naturally fortify the soil with nitrate growth, which means they need little to no fertilizer to thrive. Nutritionally, beans deliver protein, fiber, potassium, and other nutrients, and all of Beanfield’s bags are gluten-free so everyone can call dibs on their favorite flavor.</p>
