Sustainable Plant Protein. Lentils are the sustainable & affordable plant protein tool to further plant-forward menus.
About us
Lentils are the plant protein tool that will help further plant-forward menus. They are a key component to strategies looking to lower the environmental impact of food production. Cooking with lentils is the way to satisfy Millennial and Gen-Z consumers' growing interest in healthy and crave-able plant protein options, while also solving operational needs for cost-efficient and sustainable menu solutions. Lentils.org is actively working to increase the awareness and consumption of delicious and nutritious lentils in North America. High in protein and fiber, lentils are an economical and sustainable source of plant-based protein. Lentils, and other pulses, use less fertilizer and improve soil health by fixing nitrogen back into the soil during the growing process. Lentils and other pulses also have a low carbon footprint, are resilient in the face of climate change, and require relatively low water inputs. Working on behalf of growers who are committed to sustainable agricultural practices and respecting the environment, Lentils.org looks forward to supporting menu innovation using lentils.
