About KROGER, RED LENTILS
Kroger Red Lentils are a single-ingredient dried legume product from the Kroger store brand: red lentils and nothing else. Red lentils (Lens culinaris) are the hulled and split version of lentils, which gives them their distinctive orange-red color and makes them cook significantly faster than green or brown whole lentils — typically in 15 to 20 minutes without soaking. They break down and thicken naturally during cooking, making them ideal for dal, soups, purees, and stews where a smooth, creamy texture is desirable.
This product is free from all added ingredients and contains no major allergens as listed. It is naturally vegan, gluten-free (cross-contact with gluten grains during processing is possible and should be verified for sensitive individuals), and suitable for virtually every dietary approach. Lentils belong to the legume family, so those with legume cross-reactivity should consult a healthcare provider.
Nutritionally, red lentils are exceptional: approximately 343 calories per 100 g (dry), with 25.7 g protein, 60 g carbohydrates, 2.9 g fat, and 11.4 g dietary fiber. They are one of the best plant-based protein sources available at a low cost, and the combination of protein and fiber makes them highly satiating. They are also a significant source of folate, iron, potassium, and B vitamins. After cooking, their volume roughly doubles and caloric density drops accordingly.
