1 lb. dried black beans = ??? cans of black beans. TIA!

Sounds like it would be approximately 3 1/2 cans. Maybe this will help...

***1 pound of dry navy beans equals about 2 cups raw or 6 cups cooked.

***1 can (15½ oz.) beans equals 1 2/3 cups of cooked beans.

1 cup dry navy beans equals about 3 cups cooked.

1 can (1 lb. 11 oz.) beans equals 2½ cups cooked beans.

1 can (l lb. 14 oz.) beans equals 3 cups cooked beans.

In recipes, use 2½ cups of canned beans for each cup of dry beans called for.
