Healthy lentil soup with seeds, dried garlic and dried rose petals as topping. The lentils lose some of their beautiful red colour when cooked, but the puree is very enjoyable! I love red lentils – I also need red lentils for my Dahl. This time I made a red lentil soup with red lentils, bouillon, carrots and Greek yoghurt. Red lentils provide a lot of nutrients and vitamins. After a meal, they prevent the rapid rise in blood sugar levels, lower cholesterol levels and protect against dangerous diseases.
They also contain a very high percentage of proteins, which are particularly good for our organs and muscles. They also provide a lot of fibre, potassium, magnesium, calcium, zinc, copper, phosphorus and iron. A great legume if you want to lose a little weight and eat a healthy diet. The highlight at the end – this recipe takes only 15 minutes.
