I bought a bag of dry red kidney beans and it says dry they are 70 calories for 1/4 cup......after I soak them would it still be 70 calories for 1/4 cup or does that change?

    1/4 of a cup of dry beans will expand to about 1/2 cup. The calorie content won't changed but the mass will because of the water absorption.
