Flannerys Own French Green Lentils

This tiny nutritional giant fills you up, not out.

Flannerys Own French Green Lentils Lentils are a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family and are a very good source of cholesterol lowering fibre. French Green Lentils (also known as lentilles du Puy) are prized above other lentils for their strong peppery flavour and their firmness, even after cooking.

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 six important minerals including two B-vitamins and protein, all with virtually no fat. The calorie cost of all this nutrition is just 230 calories for a whole cup of cooked lentils.

Lentils are one of the best vegetable sources of iron. This makes them an important part of a vegetarian diet, and useful for preventing iron deficiency. Iron is particularly important for adolescents and pregnant women, whose requirements for it are increased.

See our featured recipe section below for some great recipes.

Flannerys Own Quinoa Grain

A Great Alternative to Rice!

Flannerys Own Quinoa Grain Quinoa is starting to gain in popularity in Australia as its outstanding characteristics as a food source become better known.

A cousin of Amaranth and pronounced 'keen wa', Quinoa was one of the most important of the ancient staple foods of the Incas and was known to them as 'the mother grain'.

Botanically Quinoa is not a true grain but, like Buckwheat, can be used as one. It has been grown in the South American Andes for thousands of years and thrives in high, cold altitudes.

Compared with all other grains Quinoa has the highest protein content, it has more calcium than milk and is higher in fat content than any other grain. It is also a very good source of iron, phosphorus, B vitamins and vitamin E. It has the added advantages of being an alkaline grain like Millet and is also gluten free.

See below for some great recipe ideas.
