Beanfields Bean Chips are Like Tortilla Chips, Only Better

The “healthy” chip market has exploded in recent years, but one manufacturer has broken away from the pack by producing corn-free tortilla chips in amazing dairy-free flavors. Beanfields Bean Chips (formerly known as Beanfield’s Bean and Rice Chips) are made simply with black and navy beans, rice, oil, and natural seasonings.

Consequently, Beanfields Chips pack in around 4 grams each of fiber, protein and fats per serving and 4% of the RDA for calcium. I think four is the lucky number for this little company!

• Currently available in five seven ten varieties.

As for the flavors, we liked every single one that we tried. I’m not just being nice either – they are seriously scrumptious. Even our picky young testers agreed. Below I’ve included product details and tasting notes for each of the Beanfields Bean Chips varieties that we sampled, followed by a quick list of their additional flavors.

Sea Salt

These are your baseline Beanfields Bean Chips. Each bite had just the right sprinkling of salt to satisfy cravings.

Ingredients: black beans, navy beans, brown rice, safflower or sunflower oil, sea salt.

Nutrition (per 11 chips): 130 calories, 6g fat, 16g carbs, 4g fiber, <1g sugars, 4g protein.*

Pico de Gallo

I would describe this chip as full of flavor, but with a mild salsa-like kick. Tony devoured these SO fast that I really only got to try a few. Obviously, they are pretty good.

Ingredients: black beans, navy beans, brown rice, safflower or sunflower oil, seasoning blend (tomato powder, sea salt, torula yeast, onion powder, spices, tapioca maltodextrin, yeast extract, dehydrated green bell pepper, garlic powder, dehydrated parsley, extractives of paprika, natural smoke flavor, dehydrated cilantro, spice extractive).

Nutrition (per 11 chips): 130 calories, 6g fat, 16g carbs, 4g fiber, <1g sugars, 4g protein.*

Nacho

This cheesy dairy-free chip won a coveted VegNews Best of Show Award upon release. I concur that they are addictive, unique, bold, and not the least bit artificial in taste.

Ingredients: black beans, navy beans, brown rice, safflower or sunflower oil, seasoning blend (tapioca maltodextrin, salt, tomato powder, sugar, onion powder, yeast extract, dehydrated green and red bell pepper, paprika, natural flavors, extractives of annatto, lactic acid, grill flavor (from sunflower oil)).

Jalapeno Nacho

Woowee! For those of you who were disappointed in the mild mannered Pico de Gallo, this flavor has a hot temper! They aren’t dangerously spicy, but do pack quite a punch.

Ingredients: black beans, navy beans, brown rice, safflower or sunflower oil, seasoning blend (tapioca maltodextrin, salt, jalapeno pepper, tomato powder, sugar, onion powder, yeast extract, dehydrated green and red bell pepper, natural flavors, paprika, extractives of annatto, lactic acid, grill flavor (from sunflower oil)).

Nutrition (per 11 chips): 130 calories, 6g fat, 16g carbs, 4g fiber, <1g sugars, 4g protein.*

Black Bean with Sea Salt

Matching their deeper hue, these have a slight earthy flavor that reminds me a bit of flax seed. Still good, but more of a dip-delivery chip for me!

Ingredients: black beans, brown rice, safflower or sunflower oil, sea salt.

Nutrition (per 11 chips): 130 calories, 6g fat, 16g carbs, 4g fiber, <1g sugars, 4g protein.*

Complete crowd pleaser

Beans in a chip? Somehow, this brand pulls it off and even manages to make them with all-natural ingredients that are free of gluten and top allergens. All of the flavors are extra-crunchy and perfectly seasoned, but the Nacho, Ranch and Barbecue flavors truly take it up a notch and are crazy addictive. Dairy-free or not, these chips are a complete crowd pleaser.
