[quote=Anonymous]My husband and sons love bean-based dishes and I want to love them. I know the health benefits and like the idea of eating less meat. We always soak the beans overnight, which is supposed to make them easier on your stomach. But I still get horrible gas and sometimes diarrhea when I eat them. Certain varieties seem worse than others (black beans are the worst). I seem to be more ok with chickpeas and lentils. I know quinoa isn't a bean but it also wreaks havoc on my digestion. Any tips to adapting myself to these healthy foods? Right now we cook about 2 bean-based recipes a month and eat them for 2 days. [/quote]
