Answers:
yes they do, any tinned veg do, which are mostly cheap!. So are frozen veg too!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Why not make some veg soup, you can get reduced older veg quite cheap at the supermarket, take it home & use it immediately!. Make a large pan of soup, liquidise & freeze portions, this should give you at least 2 of your 5 a day & also save you some money!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Lentils count as one of your 5 a day, are very cheap and are low in fat and very nutritious!. There are lots of ways that you can use them, substitute them for meat in curry, lasagna, bolognaise, shepherds pie, chilli!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Beans are low in fat, but beware, most people don't realise that they are also very high in salt, so try not to eat them every day, or buy reduced salt varieties!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
they are full of protein but get low fat ones, you could buy a spud bucket for ￡20 and start growing your own!. Get them at a garden centre or online!.http://www!.primrose-london!.co!.uk/potato-!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Baked beans do count as they give off the same gases as the other vegetable, but sorry tomato soup doesnt as it is processed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Yes - high in fibre and proteins, but also high in salt AND sugar so bear this in mind!Www@FoodAQ@Com
