Lentils Sprouts Nutrition
We offer a variety of 3 different lentils: Green, Puy and Brown Lentils.
Lentil Sprouts are very high in fibre and low in fat. They have high levels of iron, potassium, folate, and niacin and are often recommended for vegetarians who need to supplement their diet with additional iron and protein.
A half cup of lentils contains just 115 calories and 8.9 grams of protein.
Lentil sprouts provide a complete protein just like meat. Unsprouted lentils contain 20 amino acids but when they start to sprout they develop the extra two amino acids needed to make a complete protein. They are excellent in stir fries and soups as well as eaten raw in salads.
