I am enjoying your posts on food, nutrition and carbs!! I got so interested, I looked up carbs in all vegetables.
I compiled a list of Leafy Vegetables, Fruits - the part of a plant that contains a seed or seeds is the fruit of a plant, such as Avacados, and roots and seeds. I found the carb and fiber count on a lot of them.
I have it jotted down and will type it up for everyone and post it ! It was so interesting and informative to me!!
You can have plenty of bamboo shoots (low carb) (3.9 grams of carbs, 2.2 grams of fiber, subtract fiber from carbs = 1.7 net carbs in 1/2 cup), but water chestnuts (high carb) (4 whole raw water chestnuts sliced = 8.6 grams of carbs, 1.1 grams of fiber = 7.5 net carbs in 1/2 cup).
I thought sugar snap peas and snow peas might be a no no, because they taste sweet, but they are actually low carb and good for us!!
I think the list will be helpful!
Thank you again Joe for the wonderful knowledge your sharing with us!!!!
In His Love,
Rockin Robin
