Lentil Burgers
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Both lentils and rolls enrich this vegan burger with plenty of fibre. This is good for the intestines and satiates for a longer time. The lentils also score points with lots of vegetable protein and the mineral magnesium, which plays an important role for a healthy nervous system.
