Lentils and bulgur are a nutrient-dense combination originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. Lentils are small legumes packed with protein, fiber, iron, and essential vitamins like folate and B6. Bulgur, a cracked wheat, is a whole grain rich in fiber, magnesium, and antioxidants. Together, they create a hearty, plant-based dish that's ideal for promoting digestive health, managing blood sugar levels, and supporting heart health. This duo is naturally low in fat and free of cholesterol, making it a wholesome option for vegetarian and vegan diets. While nutritious, bulgur contains gluten, which may be unsuitable for those with sensitivities or celiac disease. Lentils can also be higher in carbohydrates, so portion control may be necessary for low-carb diets. Versatile and flavorful, lentils and bulgur are a healthy staple in salads, soups, and side dishes.
