OP isn’t wrong. 4 oz of a grilled chicken breast gives you 30 grams protein and 150 calories.
To get 30 grams protein from black beans you would need to eat 2 cups/500 calories worth.
I agree that beans and lentils are heathy, but OP didn’t say what their goal is. If it is weight loss, calories matter. If OP is trying to gain muscle while not gaining fat, calories and protein matter.
Nobody is getting fat from filling up on black beans.
