About LENTILS
Kroger Lentils are a single-ingredient dry legume product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger brand, containing only lentils with no additives, preservatives, or flavoring. Lentils are among the most nutritionally complete plant-based pantry staples available, providing an exceptional combination of protein, complex carbohydrates, and dietary fiber in a shelf-stable form. Green or brown lentils are the most common type sold under generic lentil labels.
At 229 calories per 100 grams of dry lentils with 28.6 grams of protein, 57.1 grams of carbohydrates, zero fat, and an extraordinary 31.4 grams of dietary fiber, lentils are among the highest-fiber whole foods available in any store. The protein and fiber values reflect dry-weight concentrations; once cooked and rehydrated, the calories, protein, and fiber per serving decrease proportionally with the increased water absorption but remain highly favorable per serving. No allergens are present. Lentils are naturally vegan, gluten-free, and rich in folate, iron, potassium, and magnesium.
Unlike other dried legumes, most lentil varieties do not require soaking and cook in 20 to 30 minutes on the stovetop. They are used in Indian dal, Middle Eastern lentil soup, French lentilles du Puy salads, lentil burgers, and as a meat extender or substitute in pasta sauces and stuffed peppers. Available at Kroger, Ralphs, King Soopers, and Harris Teeter stores as a budget-friendly, nutritionally powerful pantry item.
