About BARLEY, PEAS & LENTILS
Meijer Barley, Peas and Lentils is a private-label store-brand dry grain and legume blend from Meijer, Inc., the Michigan-headquartered Midwest supercenter chain. The product belongs to the vegetable and lentil mixes category and consists of three pre-cooked, dehydrated whole grain and pulse ingredients: precooked barley, precooked green split peas, and precooked yellow split lentils. The simplicity of this three-ingredient formulation — free of salt, flavorings, oils, and additives — makes it a clean-label pantry staple for use in soups, stews, pilafs, and grain-based salads.
Nutritionally, this blend is highly substantive per 100 grams, providing 315 calories, 58.90 grams of carbohydrates, 16.44 grams of protein, 1.37 grams of fat, and 13.7 grams of dietary fiber. The protein content of 16.44 grams per 100 grams is notably high for a grain-legume product, reflecting the concentrated protein content of both split peas and lentils. The fiber content at 13.7 grams per 100 grams is also substantial, making this blend a significant dietary fiber source. Calorie density is moderate, consistent with whole grain and legume products.
Barley contains gluten and the product is therefore not suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. The pea and lentil components are inherently gluten-free, but the barley contaminates the blend for gluten-sensitive individuals. The product is free of dairy, eggs, soy, and tree nuts. It is suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. The use of precooked ingredients allows for shorter preparation times compared to raw legumes. This blend provides a plant-based protein and fiber source in a minimally processed, additive-free format.
