    i dunno about kidney beans but i ate the shit out of chick peas when i was cutting as a pro/carb. i'm not sure if it's considered okay, but it didn't affect me at all and they're fairly filling.

    all beans have extremely low gi and is a excelent carb source. Better than brown rice or whole grain pasta.

    What is chick peas?? Regular peas has fairly high gi and more carbs than other veggies so avoid it.

    black beans and brown rice is a good combo...use some lean ground turkey or beef and you have some good stuff....
