Lentils
Lentils are a great source of both fiber and protein, making them a perfect addition to any meal. They are high in protein and contain a significant amount of both soluble and insoluble fiber. Lentils are also high in iron, calcium, manganese, phosphorus, folate, vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B3 (niacin), and dietary fiber. Lentils have high water and fiber content, so they add bulk to your dish in the way that pasta would.
