Garbanzo beans (also called chickpeas) are a good source of protein and fiber. They are perfect for making falafels, hummus, salads, soups, and side dishes.

Mung beans, also known as Chinese bean sprouts, are small, plump, and range from bright green to a dusky olive. You can cook them whole like other beans, but they really shine when sprouted—in fact, they’re second only to alfalfa in terms of popularity among home growers.
Often used to make refried beans. Part of the kidney bean family. Excellent replacement for kidney beans in chili.
Red lentils are milder in flavor than darker varieties. They also cook more quickly and form a puree readily, making them ideal for loaves and burgers.
