Nutritional values

Poppy seeds are rich in magnesium, which is essential for healthy heart function and communication between nerve cells. Lentils also pack this salad with lots of powerful protein and iron. 

Instead of Beluga lentils, other varieties such as mountain lentils or green lentils are also suitable for the dish.
