    Beans are pretty high fiber, which I think is actually supposed to be good for T2D (specifically, eating carbs with fiber and protein). Fiber is important in general. Did your doctor give you any recommendations for diet?

    Lol....im slowly introducing beans to my diet. I was a diabetic and had to watch my carbs. My recent lab stated i no longer have diabetes due to losing 30 lbs. Im so happy but scared about the carbs.

    But was it really one single bean or two beans? You can't get more than 1 or 2 on a teaspoon.

    I have gallon mason jars and they wouldn’t hold my salads. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    I don't get it. Why is it "lol"? It's a genuine question, you posted a recipe and I don't understand how to make the recipe.

    Be careful introducing beans in to your diet some diabetics can handle beans and some of us can not if beans prove to be a problem look at lentils. I cook a lot with lentils.

    Made taco salad last night (in a big bowl)---chopped lettuce, chopped cherry tomatoes, pulled pork, black beans (in a tomato sauce) used more than a tsp, probably half a cup, two broken up taco shells, 20 g shredded cheese, and salsa over all. It's my favorite salad right now.

    OP--knowing that you're diabetic and under a doctor's care---just a lot of teasing about the beans. However, if you've got a digital food scale and start weighing everything, you'll get accuracy. Congratulations on your loss!

    Yeah, they wouldn't hold my normal ones either.
