  • stewed tomatoes?

    Are these allowed on induction? And what about cottage cheese?

    Thanks

    Cottage cheese is not. Most stewed tomatoes have sugar in them. If sugar is not on the ingredients list, then you can have them.

        As Sunny said,tomatoes are allowed (if they have no added sugar) and are on the 'one cup' list of veggies for induction.

        However, cooked tomatoes take up less space than uncooked ones, and the 'one cup' amount is supposed to be for uncooked ones, so dont have too many!

        For comparison the USDA database says one cup of canned tomatoes weighs 255 grams whereas one cup of sliced raw tomatoes weighs 180 grams.

        So roughly I estimate that one cup of raw sliced tomatoes is equal to a bit less than 3/4 cup of canned/stewed ones
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
