Gigandes are commonly served as a meze (small appetizer) in Greece, often alongside other side dishes. A particularly popular version is gigandes plaki, a flavorful, hearty dish of beans baked in a tomato sauce, usually served during the colder fall and winter months 🍲❄️. The rich, savory flavor of the beans pairs wonderfully with bread for dipping into the tomato sauce drippings 🍞.
These beans are 100% natural and not a hybrid or genetically modified product. They are a great source of fiber, antioxidants, and plant-based protein, making them suitable for vegetarians and vegans when prepared without meat or cheese 🥒🍅.
