As a parent and someone who likes to keep my own body running well, I am always looking for healthy snacks that taste good and are good for me.
Among the favorites that I have touted in this forum (and others) have been a variety of beans and legumes, including chickpeas, lupini beans, broad beans, cacao beans, and, of course, coffee beans.
I would now like to add to this list a “lil’” bean with BIG taste and nutrition.
Seapoint Farms has long been known for offering healthy plant-based foods. As the largest importer and manufacturer of edamame products in America, the California-based company also makes veggie dishes and pastas, and snacks made with seaweed! Even among their popular products, their new Mighty Lil’ Lentil snack is a mighty big deal!
With flavors that range from sweet cinnamon to spicy barbecue and even an impressive Falafel flavor, these crunchy little nuggets of nutrition pack protein, fiber, and other nutrients into a tasty treat that can be enjoyed on salad, in yogurt or trail mix, or right out of the bag. They are vegetarian (with two vegan varieties), gluten-free and non-GMO, so the good stuff can shine through as part of almost any diet. Even my twins ask for them, which is no small praise!
Lentils- They’re not just for soup anymore!
