Cans? Beans in the bag you gotta cook are probably better than the canned stuff.
What kind of beans are they Bro? Black Beans, and Garbonzos (chick peas) are great. You're right, some protien, lots of fiber, and basically fat free. I eat beans all the time.
Which beans? There are loads of varieties.
Not all complete protein, I`d have them along with a salad and as part of a meal with another source of protein, eggs, milk or meat for example.

Good call on the incomplete protien. Odd thing is, eating beans with starchy carbs, like brown rice, completes the protiens. Guess that why black beans and rice is so good for you. I put a can of tuna in there. It's a great meal on a bulk.
Beans are underated, good sources of nutrients but people forget them as they see them as not enough protein, forget that, see them (and all food) as a means of adding to a whole variety of foods to get your macros each and every day.
they are called fava beans its an authentic egyptian food. i do cook it i take it outta the can and put it on the cooker for like 10 mins and then eat it . i eat it with some ezekiel bread before i sleep and if iam having them for brekkie i'll eat them with rice or whole wheat toast.
iam wondering if it will sabotage my objectives lean gain and less bf iam training for mass and condition iam a rowing athelete in the off season so my weight gain has a limit right now iam trying to add lbm and cut bodyfat and it's working but i added the beans 2 days ago and i was wondering if they would suit my goals

i know exctly what u're talkln abt bro.. ;) the Egyptians best meal..
well..i added red beans to one of my meals which is around the 4th meal..its a great bulking food especially with tuna since tuna is low in calories ;)
btw..try taking ur proteins from chicken,tuna,eggs,meat..which are the best protein sources..
i always eat red meat in the form of steak and kofta , baked chicken also does it good for me sometimes i eat eggs at dinner so i was thinking about foul not ta3meya "3lashan el ta3meya me7amara " hehe and offcourse mac is the saviour every 2 or 3 days
