豆 means bean- the ground can be the earth and the top component looks like bean sprouts shooting up from the ground.

As 豆 is a part of 豆腐, I like to think of the process of making tofu, which starts with soaking beans. The top and bottom lines remind me of a container with water; the square looks like a bean soaked inside it.

This looks like two chopsticks holding a piece of tofu, sandwiched by a plate or bread.
