LENTILS
👨🌾Here’s a foodie fact for you: Lentils were one of the very first crops ever grown by humans – dating back to 11,000 BC in Greece!
And they’ve been fueling us ever since.
They are made up of more than 25% protein … they’re loaded with vitamins and minerals (including iron) … they are packed with fiber … AND they are budget-friendly.
💪But that’s just for starters. They also have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may fight cancer and other diseases.
Lentils also have been linked with lower cholesterol and blood pressure, reduced risk of heart disease, and they also can help keep you feeling full for hours after eating!
PLUS: unlike legumes that take HOURS of soaking and cooking, lentils take only about 30 minutes.
