this is a learning process.. someone asked if beans were a veggie in the veggie thread
someone googled the answer. so I thought it would be a neat thread for helping us ask questions and learn about foods..
beans are a legume. they are also a carb, but also used for protein in plant based lifestyles like mine.. I eat beans everyday.
they are a healthy carbs.. do not be scared of carbs.. its just the processed carbs that can get you in trouble if not eaten in moderation.. I don't eat processed foods, but you all have to find what works for you.
Legumes can be fruit, seeds or grains...
Well-known legumes include alfalfa, clover, peas, beans, lentils, lupins, mesquite, carob, soybeans, peanuts, tamarind, and the woody climbing vine wisteria.
