(4) 15 oz = 1 lb.
Wampus
somebody shut me the fark up.
I'm not really positive, but I would think that 1 lb of dried beans, once properly soaked, would equal 2 (15 oz) cans of beans. Maybe more. Hopefully others with more dried bean experience will chime in.
Even if you're off a bit, you should be fine. My original recipe was 2 cans of beans and I use 3 cans now for a single recipe, just to stretch it and make more servings. I don't notice a real difference in overall taste with more or less beans, just more or less beans.

I'll bet it is closer to 3 or 4 = to 1 lb. dried.

Man. Good question. I pretty much always start with dried beans and adjust accordingly.

Okay I guess I should be more specific.:wink:
1 pound dry beans equals
2 cups dry beans, before cooking
6 cups beans, after cooking
4 15-ounce cans of beans

Watching over us.
I am no expert here. When I buy local dried Great Northern Beans grown about 10 miles from my house that is what I get. I buy my beans from the farmers elevator. They seem to expand a bit more than store bought bagged one pounders.
Thanks I thought dried beans would be better than can Thought I would try them
