Re:Jenn and veggies nutrients - Veggie Black Bean Burrito's

[Guest guest]

A lot of veggies, if not cooked in lots of excess water(except in the case of

soups) or over cooked, actually have more nutrition when cooked. I noticed

this when I was looking at the nutrition charts for different veggies and

noticed this was common in many of them. That doesn't mean we don't get a lot

from eating them raw part of the time too. It wasn't a big difference.

This sounds good and filling.

Re: What's everyone having for dinner?

 

 

I grated up a large carrot and a not so large zucchini. Added to a pan with

two cans black beans and a little water. Boiled them and mashed them up a bit.

 

Filled some warm tortillas up with the beans, cheese and some salsa.

 

I was wondering though, do the carrots and zucchini still keep their nutrients

or do they end up being just filler this way? Does anyone have any ideas on

this?

>>Happy Wednesday to all.

Just wondering what everyone is fixing

for dinner [or fixed for dinner already,

depending upon your time zone] ?
