Can you freeze leftover canned beans?

Yes, you can freeze leftover canned beans. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Drain the beans from their can and rinse them under cold water to remove any excess salt or liquid.

2. Transfer the beans to a freezer-safe container, such as a plastic bag or airtight plastic container.

3. Label the container with the date and contents, and place it in the freezer.

4. When ready to use, remove the container from the freezer and thaw the beans in the refrigerator or at room temperature. You can also microwave the beans on low power until they are thawed, but be sure to stir them periodically to avoid uneven heating.

5. Once thawed, the beans can be used in any recipe as you would fresh beans.
