So, what is lenteja roja?

Lenteja roja, also known as red lentil, is a nutritious legume commonly used in Mediterranean, Indian, and Middle Eastern cuisine. It has a delicate, slightly sweet flavor and a soft texture that makes it perfect for soups, stews, curries, and salads. Red lentils are rich in protein, fiber, and essential minerals such as iron, phosphorus, and potassium. They are also a great source of folate and vitamin B6, which are essential for maintaining healthy blood cells and reducing the risk of heart disease. Due to their quick cooking time and versatility, lenteja roja is a staple ingredient in many vegetarian and vegan diets.
