Sugar Snap Peas

[Sweet Strudel]

Ok, so I really can't find any information specifically if Sugar Snap Peas are legal on Induction or on the Veggie Rung or do you have to wait til the Legume Rung.

I know with Sugar in the name I'm probably not gonna wanna hear the answer to this...LOL.

Thanks!

Re: Sugar Snap Peas

here ya go, went to get it!

Vegetables - You can have two to three cups per day of:

• alfalfa sprouts
• mushrooms
• endive
• parsley
• bok choy
• peppers
• celery
• fennel
• radicchio
• chicory
• radishes
• chives

These salad vegetables are high in phytonutrients and provide a good source of fibre.

• artichoke

• pumpkin
• artichoke hearts

• sugar snap peas
• bean sprouts

Re: Sugar Snap Peas

Here's the thing about peas...

If the "peas" you are eating are enclosed in a pod and you EAT THE POD and the pea inside is small (like snow peas and sugar snap peas and even GREEN BEANS) it is considered "vegetable" rung not starchy veggie rung. Basically what you are ingesting is the POD and the pea or bean is insignificant.

If the "peas" you are eating are enclosed in a pod that you DISCARD and only eat the pea/bean--like green peas, black eyed peas, lima beans, etc. THOSE are starchy veggies.

Very interesting Joy...Thanks so much for that information. I never knew that before.

I had 10 sugar snap peas pod and all with my lunch and they were yummy.

Thanks again for letting me and others know!
