What it is

Lentils are small, lens-shaped legumes that grow on a bushy plant. They are a good source of protein and fiber. Lentils are typically dried and then cooked before being used in food products.

Lentils are often used as a protein source and thickener in vegetarian and vegan dishes. They can be found in soups, stews, veggie burgers, and salads, adding a hearty texture and earthy flavor.

Health notes

Lentils are a nutritious food, rich in fiber, protein, and various vitamins and minerals. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers lentils a whole food and they are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for consumption. International bodies like the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated lentils as part of broader legume assessments, recognizing their nutritional benefits. No specific health concerns are associated with typical consumption of lentils.
