Beanfields Bean and Rice Chips–You’ve Never Had Chips Like This – Review and Giveaway (Now Closed)

For snack lovers like me looking for a healthier alternative to corn chips, tortilla chips or potato chips, a new line of crispy and delicious bean and rice chips has just been introduced by Beanfields. Made from a combination of premium U.S. grown black beans, navy beans and long grain rice, Beanfields chips have a taste and crunch that sets them apart.

I love beans with a passion. I also love tortilla chips. When I heard about Beanfields I was excited yet a little apprehensive. When I finally tasted them I was pleasantly surprised. The Pico De Gallo was excellent with a pronounced salsa flavor. I also tried the Sea Salt & Pepper. To this day I have not found a salt and pepper chip I have liked, but Beanfields definitely changed that. They have a kick to them with the pepper and a little punch with the sea salt but they were not overwhelming.

The chips overall are really hard to explain. They most certainly taste like beans and they do taste a lot like tortilla chips when it comes to crunch, but they’re a bit heavier or denser. There is most definitely a significant bean flavor so if you don’t like beans they wouldn’t be for you. It almost reminded me of eating a delicious bean burrito but in crunchy form lol.

Something else I noticed about them is that they were a lot more filling for me. Instead of being tempted to eat a whole bag of chips I was satisfied after a single serving. This might have something to do with the fiber content.

More About Beanfields

The nutritional value of beans is well-known, but it took snack experts at Beanfields to make them into a light and crispy snack chip that. are a healthier and more satisfying snack, with twice as much protein and fiber as most tortilla, corn, or potato chips.

Beanfields chips come in 4 flavors:

* Naturally Unsalted

* Sea Salt

* Sea Salt & Pepper

* Pico de Gallo

Every 1 oz. serving of Beanfields chips provides 4 grams of protein, about as much as a 4 oz. glass of milk, and 4 grams of fiber, about the same as a ½ cup serving of raisin bran.  The chips are also free of every one the FDA’s eight most common ingredients that trigger food allergies.  For people who need to avoid salt, Beanfields chips also come in a great tasting unsalted version.

 

Beanfields Bean & Rice Chips are also:

• Corn & Gluten Free

• Non GMO

• Farmed & Made in the USA
