An recipe for mijamined lentils with nutritional run
It is the healthy accompaniment dish that your meals have been missing.
Outside the classic soup,Lentils are so rarely used to their full potential. They are an old grain legume that has been cooked frequently by our ancestors hundreds of years ago. And obviously they knew what they did, because the lenses are loaded with protein, grumpy with fibers and affected by a massive dose of antioxidants, these grains are a full blownsuperfeument. Unfortunately, the lenses do not receive the best public relations these days. They are relegated to a food that few people cook and less restaurants serve. We think it's completely crazy, given how cheap they are, tasty and easy to prepare. In addition, their health benefits are irreplaceable: lenses help reduce cholesterol, they are an excellent source of protein (and alsovegetarian), they increase energy and are good for your heart and your digestive system. That's why we decided to give the lenses the good public relations they need! And now, you see why our oldest ancestors have eaten, right? Use this lentil recipe as a base for one side with roasted or roasted meats and fish (especiallySalmon) You want more flavor? Start with abacon or a ham jarret. Do you want to keep things vegetarian? Add in somegrilled vegetables To make an heir, rich in nutrients, braid lens stew.
