Is steak with baked potato and green beans high in oxalate?

E

Yes. Very high, 66 mg per 1 plate

Range 47 to 117 mg across the studies behind each ingredient

Lower-oxalate swap: use cauliflower instead of potato and the dish drops by about 39 mg.

One serving of steak with baked potato and green beans (1 plate) has about 66 mg of oxalate, 132% of the 50 mg a day many stone clinics aim for. Potato carries 64% of it.

If your doctor has put you on a low-oxalate diet, have it with something high in calcium, like milk, yogurt or cheese. Calcium in the same meal binds oxalate in the gut, so less of it reaches your urine.
