What is your favorite type of bean, and your favorite vegan/vegetarian bean dish?

As a child, I hated beans...I wouldn't even wash a dish that beans were prepared in! Now, as an adult and a vegetarian, I have come to love beans. I am still a little nervous about trying different types of beans, but love kidney beans(the red ones) and tried lentils for the first time tonight(which I really liked!)

I love soybean so like almost anything done with it. Tofu, soy drink, soap, pudding and Edamame (baby soybean).



Lentils soap with rice is also one of my liking.



Baked beans with rice or bread.



Stir fried long beans, french beans and snow bird peas are nice too.



Chickpea (although not bean) is also one of my liking, soap or salad.



Peanut is something I can't miss too, one of my favorite is black bean with peanut soap (Chinese style).What is your favorite type of bean, and your favorite vegan/vegetarian bean dish?
My favorite is lentils they are good with everything specially a good curry and lentils cook faster.

Kidney beans, Rice, and toasted honey oats that I formed into cakes and they were seasoned my home mix of curry which has paprika, turmeric, coriander, cumin, ginger, nutmeg, fenugreek, clove, cardomom , and white,red,black, pepper. I also put habanero sauce on it and sprinkle of blood orange juice
im a college student so im all about quick and easy. I use black beans and make an easy black bean/corn/green chili/avocado salsa and put it in a tortilla with some sauteed peppers and onions and top with fresh grated cheese and a dab of sour cream YUM!
