Healthy, because
Lentils contain plenty of protein, carbohydrates and fibre. They also contain a lot of B-group vitamins and iron. Lentils are an important source of vegetable protein, because they make you full and strengthen your muscles. The kohlrabi and potatoes are also rich in fibre and have a positive effect on blood pressure due to the potassium they contain.
Even smarter
Lentils are available in different colours and have different cooking times. The red and yellow lentils require only a short cooking time and are cooked in 15 minutes. Ideal for quick cooking. If you like meat, you can also use minced poultry meat for this casserole.
