"Beans" question... (Phase I)

Mel78 · 10-26-2005, 07:23 AM

Please don't kill me for asking a "stupid" question...

Are REFRIED BEANS made from one of the acceptable types of beans?

(I'm at work and don't have the can in front of me or anything, so this is a totally off the top of my head question...)

I'm trying to think of (plan) lettuce wrap sandwiches I can make, and if refried beans are acceptable, I can make a taco salad wrap (ff sour cream seasoned with taco seasoning, tomatoes, ff cheese, seasoned grilled chicken and salsa -- and beans if allowed.)... I mean, it will be fine if they aren't, but I was reading and it recommended that part of the daily veggie allowance be BEANS... sooooooo....

Thanks.

Mel, according to the SBD "Good Fats, Good Carbs" book:

1/2 cup FF, canned refried beans is allowed.
