Like other common beans, light red kidney beans are native to Central and South America but are now used throughout the world in a variety of dishes. Light red kidney beans are a rich source of plant-based protein, an excellent source of fibre, and are naturally low in fat and sodium, making them an essential part of a well-balanced and healthy diet.
