Lentil dishes: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of prepared meals and accompaniments where lentils are a primary ingredient. Examples include stews, curries, and grain mixes, often featuring pulses combined with vegetables, grains, and spices. When choosing products in this category, the ingredient list typically shows the order and proportion of components. Lentils themselves are a source of fibre and protein. The nutrition label provides details on energy content, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, and salt per serving. For products that are part of a meal, the overall nutritional profile is important. The Eatwell Guide from the NHS suggests that pulses, beans, fish, eggs, meat and other proteins should make up just over a tenth of the food eaten, based on their contribution to a balanced diet. The salt content is also shown on the nutrition label, with UK adults advised to consume no more than 6g of salt per day. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
