Whole green lentils have pale or mottled green beans that are small and have a somewhat peppery flavor. The beans retain their shape after cooking quite well. Therefore, they are perfect for salads and other side dishes. They are also fast to prepare since you do not have to presoak it.

Green Lentils Health Benefits

If you want to add a cholesterol-lowering fiber to your diet, you should definitely try our whole green lentils. This product also provides unique benefits by preventing blood sugar levels from rising right after a meal. Some people call green lentils a nutritional giant because a cup of cooked lentils contains 230 calories. Other remarkable health benefits include the following:

  • Green lentils are rich in both soluble and insoluble dietary fibers. The former helps you get cholesterol out of your body, while the latter increases stool bulk and prevent diverticulosis and bowel syndrome.
  • The fiber in lentils also helps your body get slow-burning energy while stabilizing blood sugar levels. It is remarkable that a high fiber diet even reduces the amount of the most dangerous form of cholesterol – the very-low-density lipoprotein – by more than 10%.
  • Eating more green lentils significantly reduces the risk of death from heart disease. This is partly due to a large amount of magnesium and folate. Magnesium helps your body prevent heart attacks, and folate regulates the methylation cycle.
  • By eating green lentils, you increase iron and create hemoglobin and critical enzyme systems for metabolism. Having enough iron is especially important for women as they often experience iron deficiency during pregnancy.
  • These small green beans contain a significant amount of folate that promotes brain development.

How to Sprout Lentils at Home

  1. Yields approximately 3 Cups (1/2 lb.) of Sprouts. Prep 3 Tablespoons of lentils, then transfer into a bowl or into your Sprouter. Add 2-3 times as much cool (60°-70°) water. Mix lentils up to assure even water contact for all.
  2. Allow lentils to soak for 6-12 hours. Empty the lentils into your Sprouter (if necessary). Drain off the soak water. Rinse thoroughly with cool (60°-70°) water. Drain thoroughly! Set your Sprouter anywhere out of direct sunlight and at room temperature (70° is optimal) between Rinses. Ensure sufficient air-circulation is provided.
  3. Always be sure to Drain very thoroughly. The most common cause of inferior sprouts is inadequate drainage. Rinse and Drain again every 8-12 hours for 3 days.

Reviews on
This was an accidental purchase (meant to order French lentils) but I really like these. The lentils were large, fresh and good quality.
The Incredible Green Lentil, Loaded with antioxidants, High quality protein, rich in fiber, iron, and manganese. I was surprised that these lentils were so clean. There is very little dust and virtually no foreign seeds or twigs. These lentils are great and have a savory peppery flavor. They are organic and these are the small green lentils that taste so good. They are easy to cook with a little water or stock and whatever else you like for a great meal. They are good with rice or potatoes and they make a great soup or stew. Just cook them with a little chicken, beef or vegetable stock. Because these little green lentils hold their shape so well after cooking they also make a great cold salad with some tomatoes and onions. You can also cook them with a small bit of liquid so they come out dry. Then you can blend them with a little sesame or olive oil and spices to taste and make a wonderful dip for veggies or rough chips. There are just so many way to fit these little guys into your food chain.
