Delicious legume lunch goals from @jess_spendlove_dietitian 😋 Plus, why legumes are just so great... ・・・

Are you sneaking lentils and legumes into your meal routine!? If not, I’m here to get you on board 🚂🚂
⠀
Not sure what to do with them?⠀
⠀
Not sure why you should bother?⠀
⠀
First things first, the HOW, and then the WHY.⠀
⠀
💁🏻‍♀️ Here’s my Lentils and legume introduction for beginners.
⠀
1. Add a tin of chickpeas to your favourite salad (or any salad for that matter)⠀
⠀
2. Boost up any mince dish with half meat and half beans - my favourite a burrito bowl with half premium lean beef mine & half a five bean mix ⠀
⠀
3. Add some lentils to a soup or casserole recipe⠀
⠀
4. Make a home made dip featuring one or some - ummm hello home-made hummus ⠀
⠀
5. Swap out a meat meal each week for a lentil based dish like a Dahl or vegetarian bologanise ⠀
⠀
So it’s pretty easy to start... but WHY should you!? ⠀
⠀
Where does one begin!⠀
⠀
They are a nutritional power houses - literally! They are packed full of prebiotic fibres, plant protein, non-haem iron, many b-vitamins, potassium, phosphorous and zinc to name a few, they are super good for you and your gut bacteria! ⠀
⠀
They are cost effective - ca-ching 💸⠀
⠀
They are good for the environment - sustainability 🌏⠀
⠀
All I am really reading here is win, win and win or tick, tick and tick!⠀
⠀
Would love to how you sneak your lentils and legumes into your routine? ⠀
