Big Bean Theory

The Big Bean Theory is your source for delicious bean-based cuisine and other specialty foods. We are grateful for all your support, and we thank you for making The Big Bean Theory your choice for vegan and vegetarian foods!

Everyone has a story. Our story starts in 2001. Chef & owner Eula McDowell began preparing meals for a small group of people upon request in her home town of Baltimore, MD. After a few years of growing her following and non-stop catering, THE BIG BEAN THEORY was born! This new venture turned into a rolling hill of unstoppable beans… literally! Big Bean Theory can be found at major Baltimore Farmers Markets throughout the city. In addition to farmers markets, The Big Bean has opened a cafe’ at MT. Vernon Marketplace. Ask yourself…what kind of menu can be designed with bean based cuisine?  From Black Bean Burgers, Falafel Burgers, Veggie Lasagna, Black Eye Pea Gumbo to Mama’s Rock’n Moroccan Stew, and countless other soups and meals, The Big Bean Theory’s menu is almost endless. The Big Bean Theory caters small and large events.
