Lentils are grouped with beans and peas as part of the legume family. Lentils are high in protein and fiber and low in fat, which makes them a healthy substitute for meat. Lentils are loaded with folate, iron, phosphorus, potassium.
I’m using my slow cooker to make lentil soup today. It’s been cooking for thirty minutes and the fragrance is already making me hungry. By mid afternoon, I’ll have to start sampling it to make sure it is coming along (LOL).
I am an optimistic, can do, and never quit guy. The spirit of hope indelibly marks my DNA. My research at The Ohio State University helped people discover the best in themselves and change their personal lives, public organizations, and whole communities. I bring the same spirit and enthusiasm to my blog to help those who grieve who find themselves suddenly alone, navigate their grieving. Join my more than 24,300Twitter (@alwaysgoodstuff).
