About Greem lentils
Green lentils, a versatile legume, are prized for their earthy flavor and firm texture, making them a staple in a variety of global cuisines, including Indian, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean. Packed with nutrition, they are an excellent source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc. Low in fat and cholesterol-free, green lentils support heart health, aid digestion, and help maintain steady blood sugar levels. They also provide folate and B vitamins, beneficial for energy metabolism and cell function. While green lentils are highly nutritious, their protein quality is complemented by pairing with grains like rice for a complete amino acid profile. Widely available in dried or canned form, they are easy to prepare in soups, salads, or hearty main dishes, adding both nutrition and flavor to meals.
