@korinsutton: Are Green Lentils a Superfood? Let’s settle this. People love to talk down on lentils. But here’s the truth (with receipts): ✅ One cup = 18g of plant protein • loaded with fiber, iron, antioxidants. That’s a power meal — not bird food. 🚫 They’re NOT a complete protein But that’s easy to fix — just pair with quinoa or rice and you’re golden. 😬 Yes, they can cause bloating But that’s your gut talking. Soak or sprout them to ease digestion. 🔥 No, they won’t spike your blood sugar They’re low glycemic — they’ll actually help stabilize your energy. 💪🏽 And yes, you CAN build muscle with them Hit your macros. Stay consistent. Your muscles won’t know the difference. 🟢 Lentils are underrated, but not by us. 🥣 Drop a bowl in the comments if lentils are in your weekly rotation. Or save this next time someone says you “can’t build muscle on plants.”
