LENTIL PROTEIN

VEGEN FOOD IS FOR EVERYBODY!

Lentil protein is about a rich, easy-to-cook food. They form probably the cheapest protein you can buy.

What I love about LENTILS is that they are so easy to cook. They are small and absorbent enough so that, unlike most other ‘pulses’, they don’t need to be soaked. Just throw a handful of lentils in when you are cooking brown rice. Into all your stews too, even meat dishes. Delicious! What could be easier?

Legumes are a group of healthy foods which are high in protein. They include beans, peas … and lentils. At 26% protein they are a rich source for vegetarians. But why should only they enjoy the fun? Lentils are for all!

Beans get notoriously bad press but cooked right are delicious and an important part of the live healthy guide diet.



Searching for something specific? Say, " hummus ". Just type it in here...

Lentils come in a rich variety of colours. Yellow to red-orange to green, brown and black. As a general rule, remember that coloured foods are rich in anti-oxidants, so mix and match your lentil protein too. They are rich in fibre, vitamins and minerals...personally I'm less fond of brown lentils.



It grows on a small bush, but you will probably never see it growing. Quite soon our kids won’t even know that milk comes from a cow!

Generally Western society eats too much protein which is associated with a host of diseases, including breast cancer. However, vegetable proteins are much safer, and legumes make up the best source.

There are a variety of weight loss fads associated with high protein powders and foods. Avoid them at all costs! In general, all of these dietary fads are ineffective. Want to lose weight permanently? Rather just think about eating more salad and fruit, more legumes, exercise more, and stop fussing about your weight. Slowly but surely, what's more important healthily, it will come off. Do it!



Cholesterol

Another proven benefit of legumes is their ability to block the absorption of cholesterol in the gut. Just half a cup of cooked beans, a handful of lentils, and my next favourite ...

Chickpeas aka GARBANZO BEANS

Chickpeas too are a legume, and can be used to make a scrumptious dip called Choumi. The downside is that they must be soaked overnight. Once soaked though, you can freeze them, and then in a flash you can make your Choumi. (Hummus, Chickpea Garbanzo bean Dip ).

AUTHENTIC HUMMUS RECIPE ...

These days we have many clever (actually, too clever for our good) food companies selling us foods enriched with this or that. High bran, sterol fortified, vitamin D enriched ... all at ten times the price. Just eat whole wheat bread, whole rolled oats, apples, pulses for your lentil protein ... just as the good Lord intended ... and take a walk in the sun and eat more salmon for your vitamin D. Walking Benefits ... Make the time.

SMOKED SALMON DIP RECIPE ... rich in vitamin D, omega 3 AND tastes divine!
