For nearly 33 years, Spice Mama’s story has been one of inspiration, innovation, and a commitment to health. It all started during a second pregnancy as a mission to stabilize blood sugar with beans. And now, partnering with Betty Best Beans, Bean of the Month is brought to light.

At the heart of Spice Mama is the Bean of the Month Club, a subscription service that delivers a curated experience to customers’ doorsteps every month in partnership with Betty Best Beans. Each box includes:

The 14-Day Challenge: Transforming Eating Habits
Understanding the challenges of integrating beans into daily diets, Spice Mama offers the 14-Day Bean Challenge. This program is designed to ease participants into consuming beans without the common digestive discomfort associated with them.
The challenge starts with small servings—just a quarter cup of beans daily—gradually increasing by a tablespoon daily. By the eighth day, participants reach the goal of three-quarters of a cup, which translates to three full servings of beans per day. This gradual approach allows the digestive system to adapt, making the transition seamless and enjoyable.
Beyond just eating beans, participants learn how to incorporate them into every meal. Recipes range from breakfast dishes to decadent desserts, such as a chocolate snack made with black beans, peanut butter, raw cacao, and maple syrup—a favorite among kids and adults alike.
Health Benefits That Speak for Themselves
The results of the 14-Day Challenge are both immediate and impactful. By the end of the first week, participants often notice:
– Improved energy levels.
– Reduced cravings for sugary snacks.
– Clothes fit more comfortably, as beans help curb hunger and promote fullness.
Eating beans regularly also offers long-term benefits, such as stabilizing blood sugar, reducing food bills, and supporting overall health.
A Mission Rooted in Sustainability
Beyond health, Spice Mama champions sustainability. Beans are a superfood not just for people but also for the planet. Farmers often grow beans to enrich the soil naturally, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. Customers indirectly support eco-friendly farming practices by incorporating more beans into their diets.
Moreover, eating more beans can reduce meat consumption, a significant step toward environmental sustainability. While Spice Mama doesn’t advocate for complete vegetarianism, the company highlights the benefits of substituting some meat with nutrient-rich beans.
Setting Spice Mama Apart
The Bean of the Month is a more holistic and engaging approach, unlike traditional bean delivery services. With a focus on fun and accessibility, Spice Mama aims to make dietary changes feel less like a chore and more like an adventure. Their recipes, spice blends, and thoughtful extras ensure that customers feel supported every step of the way.
December Spotlight: The Christmas Lima Bean
This month, subscribers can enjoy the Christmas lima bean, known for its large size and rich flavor. Paired with a specially crafted December spice blend, the bean offers a delightful way to embrace the holiday season while staying committed to health and sustainability.
A Simple, Delicious Future
Spice Mama’s journey proves that small, intentional steps can lead to transformative change. Beans offer a simple yet powerful solution for stabilizing blood sugar, reducing food bills, or helping the planet. With each subscription box, the Bean of the Month offers a more flavorful, fun way to enjoy beans.
