About Baked lentils

Baked lentils are a hearty, nutritious dish often rooted in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. This wholesome recipe typically includes lentils baked with aromatic ingredients such as onions, garlic, tomatoes, olive oil, and a blend of herbs and spices like cumin or paprika. Packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential minerals such as iron, potassium, and folate, lentils are a healthful alternative for vegetarians and vegans and support healthy digestion, energy levels, and heart health. Low in fat and cholesterol, this dish is also a rich source of antioxidants. While baked lentils are naturally health-forward, adding excessive oils or sodium-heavy condiments can compromise its nutritional benefits, so moderation is key. Enjoy baked lentils as a standalone dish, a side, or a filling for wraps and bowls for a satisfying, nutrient-rich meal.
