[QUOTE="Ledzeptt, post: 1327753, member: 160898"] [USER=360485]@DavyG[/USER] I found this recipe for you to try: [URL]http://www.thetiffinbox.ca/2010/05/english-baked-beans-heinz-style.html?m=1[/URL] Notice that it does contain sugar, but perhaps you could replace it with stevia or something. The other problem is that tomatoes also contain carbs, but you can't omit them! Thinking about it, I wouldn't worry too much about the beans themselves because of their fibre content. For example, Asda tinned haricot beans contain 12.1g carbs per 100g, however 7.2g is indigestible fibre meaning you only access the net 4.9g (12.1-7.2=4.9). This is why beans are classed as low GI foods (glycemic index), so they have less impact on our blood sugars. You have to eat something and ideally food you enjoy! You may want to try other beans for variety e.g. Heinz do a "Five beanz" in a sauce that's tasty - again, sieve the sauce. Or, try their beans in Tuscan or chilli sauces. (They are more expensive though.) P.s. I don't work for Heinz, but I'm vegetarian, so I do know my beans :-) [/QUOTE]
