Lentil
Culinary Use
Lentils are often found in soups, salads, and stews due to their earthy flavor and high protein content.

I made a nourishing stew with lentils and vegetables.
Not a Bean
Though called a bean, lentils are different; they cook faster and don't require soaking like many beans do.

Unlike black beans, these lentils don't need to soak overnight.
Health Aspects
Lentils are highly nutritious and a staple in vegetarian diets, providing a good source of protein.

To get enough protein, I include lentils in my vegetarian meals.
