About Cooked yellow lentils
Cooked yellow lentils are a nutritious and versatile legume commonly used in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and African cuisines. Known for their mild, earthy flavor and tender texture, they are a staple ingredient in dishes like dal, soups, stews, and curries. Packed with protein, dietary fiber, and complex carbohydrates, yellow lentils are an excellent plant-based food for supporting muscle health and digestion. They are also rich in essential nutrients such as folate, potassium, and iron, making them beneficial for energy production, heart health, and prenatal nutrition. Low in fat and free from cholesterol, they are an ideal choice for promoting a balanced diet. However, their higher carbohydrate content should be noted for individuals monitoring blood sugar.
