Food items on my menu
 | Hi, Pauline. Olive oil is always welcome, but it is pure fat. I was hoping you could dilute your original mixture to stretch it out more. However, we definitely don’t want you to suffer! So a little milk could work, too. |
 | Thank you so much for your reply ossie Sharon yust one more question how above if I mix olive oil instead of lemon juice or vinegar as they both give me terrible heartburn |
| | Hi, Pauline. That’s a great idea, just be sure to count that combination in your daily intake. I would suggest 2 parts or more yogurt to 1 part mayonnaise – that way a full tablespoon would be a fat exchange. If you dilute it with lemon juice and/or vinegar, you can stretch it out even more. |
| | Hi Ossie Sharon |
| | Hi, bd2486. To some extent yes, but do be sure to drink water with it. Note that 0.58 oz would be a fruit serving. |
 | Are freeze dried fruits an acceptable exchange for fresh fruit? I’ve found Nature’s all organic – raw, vegan, gluten free. Pkg. says .35 oz has 35 cal, 9g carb, 4g sugar. |
| | Hi, carole16. In the Recipes section (link above), type “black bean” or “black beans” in the search box toward the middle of the page (on the right side), and it will pull up all recipes that contain them. |
 | I’m still a carnivore but enjoy veggie only days. My favorite ‘beans’ are black beans. I would like to see recipes & options including black beans. |
| | Hi, bd2486. If you want beans on your menu, I suggest you create a set of menus through the vegetarian option, and trade back and forth on the days you want to follow, so that you do have your bean-based meals. |
| | Hi, bd2486. You got the exchange thing down! These lists can be a big help: https://www.trimdownclub.com/exchanges-lists. |
| | Why are beans never on my menu? |
| | Would like to know whether the different categories within a catagory can be exchanged. An example would be dairy with low fat, high fat, low carb, high carb. So could you exchange plain yogurt with cottage cheese for instance? |
| | Hi, you two. Tech development is addressing this to see why this isn’t working for you. In the meantime, please do take advantage of our meal swap function (the arrow icon at the top right corner of each meal) to build a meal with the combinations you seek. |
 | I eat beans and brown rice most of the time! i don’t understand why your menu will not add this!! I’ll cook green beans and add potato, that’s my two vege’s! Love it with a protein!! |
 | I do not even have a choice to have beans instead of rice. Why is this?? |
