Lentiful's new lentil meals just need water, a stir and a short time in the microwave to make nourishing plant-powered meals on the go. These new instant lentil meals take away the long lengths of time that are normally needed to prepare lentil-based meals, all the while tapping into lentils as one of "the most climate-friendly sources of food on Earth," according to the brand. Ben Bacon, the founder of Lentiful, says “I believe lentils are the most overlooked and underappreciated food here in America. And as more Americans seek out new plant-based proteins and trendy alt-meats, I believe the best answer is literally right at our feet.”
The newly launched meals can be found in a trio of savory flavors (Mexican Green Chile, Thai Coconut and French Mirepoix) as well as one sweet breakfast flavor, Cinnamon Apple.
