Possible Stupid Question...Sorry!

[ARW212]

So, I'm totally new at this and I was just wondering if beans are allowed. If you soak them of course, not cook them. If so, how would I go about doing that?

You can soak them, but they won't be the same as cooked beans, unfortunately :( I'm not sure how long to soak them, though.

I think soaked, sprouted beans are okay but they are hard to digest. I think Mung Bean sprouts are the easiest to digest. You could also try Garbanzo Beans/ Chick Peas and make raw hummus with them. Whatever you do, do not eat raw kidney beans. They are toxic!

The above have charts with sprouting times but the only bean that they mention is Mung
