Healthy Hint: Lentils are an inexpensive protein source; they are high in fiber, complex carbohydrates, and B vitamins.
Kitchen Tip: Use a food processor to make quick work of chopping the vegetables for these Veggie Joes. Two carrots, two stalks of celery and two medium onions yield the measured amounts.
