Beans for a week!!!!
Someones gastrointestinal tract is in overdrive!

When cooked right and eating with the right combination of foods, it's fine. Using baking soda in the water when cooking the beans cuts down a lot on the sugars that cause gas, as does eating the beans with potatoes or a whole grain.

I haven't eaten meat in 20+ years; I know how to deal with legumes as a protein source

I just died a little inside...

Hey now, Limr actually makes an excellent point here. See, you could warm up the spaghettios on Sunday in the crockpot, then take them and reheat them later. That's.. umm. healthier, right?

Pretty sure that's outlawed by the Geneva convention.

If not, well, it should be.

It does take time to cook, but if you make the effort on one day a week to cook "big pot" dinners, you can go for several days. In the winter, I make pretty basic soups from scratch, and spend a little extra $ to get organic vegetables in there. You can mix 'em up to form a certain flavor profile. Carrots, celery, onion, garlic, leeks, turnips, potatoes....toss in some herbs and a little salt and black pepper. Add some kind of cereal to make it heartier if you want: I like pearl barley. Towards the end I might add a can of organic chopped tomatoes or frozen peas, too.

Or make a lasagne, use a meat sauce or meat-free sauce if you want. Or a big batch of spaghetti, or some other pasta, which can be portioned into lunch-sized plastic tubs to grab & go. I mean, it does take some planning, there's no denying that - and definitely a day of prep, but during the week all you have to do is heat & eat, maybe throw in a fresh salad, baguette on the side. But it can be worth it to control what you put down the gullet, and the gullets of loved ones - and in the long run you'll feel the results.

....unless you get hit by a Mack truck, of course.
