Besides the extra gas they may give you, does anyone like to use Pinto Beans as one of their complex carb choices?
If you soak them before cooking this will help break down some of the gas causing carbs from what I've read.
The ones I've picked up from Kroger show the nutritional value as "dry" factors.
35 grams dry =
7 grms protein
20 grms carbs
o grms fat
Since I'll be making a whole pot, I'm guessing the weight will change with adding the water and them cooking, does this change the nutritional value? I would think it does, if so what's the new nutrition?
I hate trying to convert this stuff.....only the bean knows!!!
