Personal Notes:
Low Calorie Option: Spray the wok with canola oil spray (I like the whole foods Spectrum brand for high heat) instead of using the oil.

Red Kidney Beans: You can use canned beans. Make sure you drain them in a colander and then rinse them thoroughly in cold water to get the canned taste out. Or you can buy dry beans soak them overnight and then cook them in the microwave or in a pressure cooker (for 15 minutes).
