The prawns are delicious and the clams too, so combining them with beans make them a perfect and healthy combination, and good for the diet of a vegetarian that consume seafood too, or maybe forget avoid those ingredients, the beans are a very complete food, remember to include them very often in your diet

Beans are a basic staple food that are so filling, so tasty, and so nutritious. It really doesn’t get much better than beans, and for the money they cost, there’s not much cheaper either. Black bean burritos and bean soup are some of my favorites!
