Notes

The costs were all calculated using Kroger’s online shopping feature but these prices do reflect what we usually see in the store. I picked the cheapest option, usually the store brand.
The nutrition database didn't include no salt added black beans so the recipe was calculated with the salted ones. If you use no salt added, the sodium will be less.
