Nutritional values

For optimal vision, especially in the dark, an adequate supply of vitamin A is important. Goat Cheese and Pumpkin are two excellent sources of vitamin A. Dietary fiber is important for a functioning digestive system and a balanced intestinal flora. Lentils provide plenty of it.

If you are not a fan of goat cheese, you can also prepare the dish with feta or halloumi. In addition, the pumpkin and lentil salad with goat cheese is great as a meal prep and perfect to take to the office for lunch.
