Lentil noodles are a nutrient-dense, gluten-free alternative to traditional pasta, made primarily from lentil flour. Originating from the growing trend of plant-based and clean-eating cuisines, they are often associated with Mediterranean and South Asian culinary influences, where lentils are a dietary staple. These noodles are high in protein, fiber, and essential minerals like iron and potassium, making them an excellent choice for vegetarians, vegans, and health-conscious individuals. Their low glycemic index can support balanced blood sugar levels, while their high protein content aids in muscle repair and growth. However, they may contain fewer micronutrients compared to whole, unprocessed lentils, and those watching their sodium intake should check labels for added salt in packaged varieties. Lentil noodles have a firm texture and earthy flavor, pairing well with a variety of sauces and seasonings for a wholesome, versatile meal.
