The following choices about the nutritional value of beans is most accurate: They're high in protein, fiber, and minerals. Correct answer: B

Beans are a type of legume . A cup (171 gram) of boiled pinto beans provides 15 grams protein (Because of this high value they are considered to be an important protein source on a vegetarian diet), 15 grams fiber and the following minerals: iron (20% of the RDI), magnesium (21% of the RDI), phosphorous (25% of the RDI), p otassium: (21% of the RDI).

Because of this high value they are considered to be an important protein source on a vegetarian diet.
