why is fiber in baked beans more than in baked potato???

Answer 1

Why are you so concerned with fiber today. If you need to eat more fiber, find a web site that list fiber rich foods and stop pondering why one food has more than another.

Answer 2

If you are missing potatoes, but want the fiber, try this recipe.
Green Chili
Take 2 cups dried pinto or other beans, cook with water until done. Set aside.
In another skillet, put a little oil, some chopped onion, garlic and diced celery. Cook until tender. Add 1 cup sliced mushrooms, then 2 large, peeled, cubed, potatoes.
Cook until the potatoes are done, adding water as necessary. Add the beans to the veg mixture, stir in a 6.5 oz can of green chili, heat through, and serve.
Can be made in a crockpot.
Delicious with hearty bread.
Good luck

Answer 3

Because beans natually contain lots of fiber, potatoes don't.

Answer 4

Potatos and beans are like comparing apples and oranges. One is a protein (beans) one isn't (potato). Potatos have more starch.

Answer 5

Because that's the way God created them.
