I use Eden Organic which has a BPA free lining. Beans freeze pretty well too so if you have time to make a lot and freeze them in 15 oz servings.

Bombolino, it's a great question. I do post recipes using canned beans, because when I started cooking I found making beans from scratch to be too much of an obstacle.

Thanks for sharing this recipe!
