So far it seems u and I are the only ones who knows beans and rice together make a complete protein.
I add beans or lentils to my rice when ever possible, why not?
You eat rice you get zero protein , you eat beans u get zero protein. You mix the 2 you get a complete protein. I don’t know jf it’s lucine or what? But dont believe all the nutritional facts u read.
Are those pinto beans?
Looks lovely.
My mum has become lactose intolerant.
Idk if it was following menopause or because a life of relentless stress caught up with her, in more than one way.
Like you, she eats Parmesan and has no problem digesting it.
The long fermentation process makes it lactose free.
Also, it contains a lot of good bacteria and lot of calcium.
The real Parmigiano Reggiano is superb and worth every penny.
I sometimes think they should actually charge more for it.
It's a unique product.
I did see there was some light coloured sauce on your pasta, earlier.
I suppose when it is something colourful you can really see the pasta coated it with it and how well it works with condiments.
But it was a beautiful dish.
And so is this one with the beans.
Must have been super flavourful.
Love seafood with legumes, it's a cool combo.
So happy to know you are eating and on the mend.
