is baked beans on brown bread good for eating on a diet?

Question

are baked beans really healthy?

Answer 1

Excellent choice - but make sure it's wholemeal bread, not just "brown" bread. And no butter on the toast!
Even better, buy the low salt/sugar beans.

Answer 2

Baked beans are a good source of secondary protein. In the 80s I remember the 'F' plan diet - 'F' being Fibre. However 'F' is also the first letter of 'fart' - and that's an inconvenience with a bean diet.

Answer 3

Baked Beans are really good for you they are full of Fibre i eat a lot of them i love them
If you can eat Wholemeal or Granary bread which is even better for you than brown bread

Answer 4

Bacon, egg and tomato on fried bread sandwich. Side of baked beans with sausage and a side of hash browns.

Answer 5

Brown bread good. Beans good. "Baked Beans" bad! They say in tomato sauce. Should say sugar sauce!

Answer 6

Buy the low salt and sugar versions, don't use butter either on the bread, otherwise they are both high in fibre and the tomato sauce high in vitamin C and something else that i cannot recall the name of but is present in all red fruit and veg and is good against cancer....

Answer 7

beans r indeed healthy and with brown bread yes.....dont know more bout having it during a diet

Answer 8

Yes, they are both low fat and high fibre, and although the beans have sugar they are still better than a lot of things cause they fill you up and hopefully stop you snacking later on...yum yum!!! x x

Answer 9

Definately a low fat option...I used to eat this alot when I was on weightwatchers. Tin tomatoes on toast are delicious too! Try to skip the butter/marg though!!!

Answer 10

beans have a lot of protein but are very fattening so not good for a diet
