Protein and fiber

Peas are low fat but high everything else. A cup of peas has less than 100 calories but lots of protein, fiber and micronutrients. Fresh, tender peas are relatively low in calories on comparison with beans, and cowpeas. 100 g of green peas provide only 81 calories, and no cholesterol. Nonetheless, the legumes are a good source of proteins, and soluble as well as insoluble fiber.
