YES!
I have also spent a year or more eating rice and beans. I learned to love it and I learned a lot about specific rices and beans. Got great prices in bulk at a local health food store. I, too, used a lot of chickpeas (humus) and lentils! Lentils! I turned into a lentil freak! I even ate lentils or lentil soup for breakfast.
I was very healthy, very fit.
It can be a very healthy way of living, as long as one's diet is balanced overall.
Love to All!
