Beansprouts and Chillis's Induction friendly?

[iantheace]

The packets would suggest so for my finger chilli's and beansprouts, beansprouts have 1.1g carbs per 100g, and chillis 1.7g carbs......

[Desertthorn]

Neither are on the list, but I would think they are fine.
So what are we making with bean sprouts and chili?

[MotherOfGizmo]

I thought all kinds of peppers were on the induction list. Aren't they?

[iantheace]

Stir fry with chciken marinaded in sesame oil with diced chilli, paprika, (peppers maranaded with too) corriander and thyme(little sprinkles). Then cooked it all for 15 mins in the marinade after its marinded 3 hrs, add beansprouts and mushrooms and ur set for prolly the best meal ive cooked :O

How many peppers? They still carry a carb count. If they are jalapenos, you're looking at about a carb per small pepper. Use fitday.com (it's free) to calculate the food values and to keep yourself honest. It also will include carb measurements for sprouts.

Its 3 quarters of a normal pepper (the really big things) , they are 2.7 carbs per 100g. They are also beansprouts, not spouts (the long white things).

I only eat 2 meals a day now i cant really take 3.

Todays intake was:

This meal came to(5PM):

Chicken (250g) no carbs
pepper slices (90g) 2.5 carbs
diced finger chilli (25g) 0.5 carbs
Mushrooms 1 cup No idea on carbs
about 60g of beansprouts 1 Carb
So its 4 carbs + the mushrooms
12 Oz Serving of water
+ Small amount of garlic mayo to dip 1 carb

Breakfast (10AM):

3 Slices of bacon 0.5 carbs
3 medium eggs 2 carbs
48 Oz Water
Yes i woke up and drank 4 pints of water.

Leaves me at 7 carbs + the mushrooms. I also noticed peppers and mushrooms seem to give you quite a bit of fibre so helps the digestion etc.

Out of curiosity, why are you only eating 2 meals a day? You should consider eating a snack because we aren't supposed to go more than 6 waking hours without eating. Part of the weight loss on this diet depends on stabilizing your blood sugar, going too long without eating will only destabilize your blood sugar.
