Protein snack

[RoseA]

Just found this info - sounds like they could be an ideal WLS snack... anyone had them ?

Salted dry roasted edamame soybeans are gluten free, cholesterol free and MSG free. They also are packed with Vitamin C, Calcium and Iron. A 1/4 cup serving (or 30g) serving contains 130 calories, 4 grams of fat, no saturated or trans fats, 230 mg of sodium (they are salted), 9 grams of Carbohydrates, 7 grams of dietary fiber and 13 grams of protein. So, they are high in protein and low in Net Carbs (which are your total carbs minus your dietary fiber=2grams net carbs), so they make a great snack for people watching their carb intake and they appeal to those looking for a high protein snack.

They sound lovely - pity about the salt . I have to be careful as I'm on meds for my BP.

M&S do edaname beans and wasabi peas with the crisps and nuts - the peas can be a bit hot but I can nibble a few

High in protein and yummy
