Bang in Some Beans: The Aisles of Power

We've just launched a Bang in Some Beans podcast series!

It's part of our three-year mission with Veg Power to get the UK eating more beans and we've enlisted chef and writer Melissa Hemsley to show us how these little powerhouses of goodness are so good for our health, the planet and stretched family budgets.

In episode one, Ian Theasby, one half of the super-influencer recipe developer and food writing team, BOSH! tells us how and why supermarkets can change the conversation about beans; Dr Jo Lunn, head nutritionist at Waitrose takes us behind the scene to show us what's happening in the aisles of power; and Food Foundation ambassador Jani Clarke and her Nan and Grandad try out BOSH!'s Ultimate Chilli recipe - and it more than lives up to the hype.

You can find the recipe for BOSH!'s Ultimate Chilli here along with all the recipes for the podcast series.
