Beans????

Ok so I cooked another pot of beans yesterday. Trashed the package and the trash ran today so I cant dumpster dive to get my answer... LOL

Does anyone know about the protein amount in say 1/2 or 1 cup of pinto beans?

I read that a cup of pinto beans is around 9g of protein, so half...4-5g. I am planning on fixing chili this weekend, so that will be chopped full of protein..yummo

LOL-I took my folks to Golden Corral.  I haven't been there in years and they've changed in a good way.  When I hit the veggie bar I hollered at Mom-"Look Ma, they have a whole wall of BEANS!" (and brussel sprouts).

LOL Debra you never cease to amaze me... :)

You know last night when they was still cooking my kids were chanting the beans song... Yeah you know the ones... beans beans good for your heart....... well anyways... I have noticed that since surgery yes I do get gas and man do those pains hurt but I dont pass gas near as much as I used to....

Does anyone else notice this? Or am I just full of gas??? lmao
