      very good for you; high in protein and dietary fiber -- if you mix them with grains, such as rice you have a "complete" protein dish, meaning you have a meal with proteins comprised of all the essential amino acids


      --> this page provides some more info on lentils and there are four recipes you can get to by using the recipe selector link on that page as well

                    Yeah, big up the lentils and split peas! Some cook up some lentils add to chopped tomatoes and mix through some wholewheat pasta, add a little herbs and you've got one powerful meal - making me hungry just typing it!!
