Lentils are a very good source of cholesterol-lowering fiber. Not only do lentils help lower cholesterol, they are of special benefit in managing blood-sugar disorders since their high fiber content prevents blood sugar levels from rising rapidly after a meal. But this is far from all lentils have to offer. Lentils also provide good to excellent amounts of seven important minerals, our B-vitamins, and protein—all with virtually no fat. The calorie cost of all this nutrition? Just 230 calories for a whole cup of cooked lentils. This tiny nutritional giant fills you up—not out.

Spicy Vietnamese Prawn & Mango Salad

Who doesn't love the spicy and savoury vietnamese kitchen? It's not only deliciously tasty, it's healthy and really easy and quick to prepare! One or more ingredients not at home? Simply replace them by others according to your taste. (When using prawn, do make sure they are high quality and absolutely fresh - if you can't get fresh ones make sure they have a MSC label.)

MANGOS are not only tasty, but also a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin B6, and a very good source of vitamin A and vitamin C. Please keep in mind: a large portion of the calories in this food come from sugars. You don't like mangos but still want it fruity? What about some pomelo instead?

SOYBEAN SPROUTS - you don't like meat or seafood? Stick with the sprouts - the contains loads of protein, vitamin C, thiamin, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium, and are a very good source of vitamin K, folate, copper and manganese.

CILANTRO (Coriander leaves) - either you hate it or you love it, not much inbetween :) - in first case USE PLENTY of, they will not only give your dish that typical southeast-asian taste, but are also a good source of thiamin and zinc, and a very good source of dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), vitamin K, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folate, pantothenic acid, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, copper and manganese - did you guess??
