Black Beans Curry
Description
BLACK BEANS CURRY
Black beans are available throughout the year. Dried beans are generally available
in prepackaged containers as well as in bulk bins. Black beans curry serve with
roti and parata.
Health Benefits:
Black beans are a very good source of cholesterol-lowering fiber, as are most
legumes. In addition to lowering cholesterol,black beans' high fiber content
prevents blood sugar levels from rising too rapidly after a meal, making these
beans an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes, insulin resistance
or hypoglycemia. When combined with whole grains such as brown rice, black
beans provide virtually fat-free high quality protein. You may already be familiar
with bean's fiber and protein, but this is far all black beans have to offer.
