Black Beans-Ingredients-Olive Oil-Garlic-Vegan

Is olive oil vegan? Are black beans vegan if they came from a can and are plain? How much garlic should I eat if I want to add a lot of it to a dish? How healthy is quinoa???

Yes, olive oil is Vegan. Black beans from a can are vegan unless otherwise stated in the Ingredients. They are plain but they have added salt and some of them have other things in them. Always check the ingredients because some canned (refried) beans have lard in them. Garlic… that depends on how much you want to add and what you are making. Taste test it. Maybe mince half of a clove and add it into the dish and if it’s not enough, add more. That only works with some dishes though. And you can read about the health benefits of quinoa here. It’s a good alternative to rice and regular spaghetti noodles and pasta. For me, they are a lot less bloat-y. read more..
