Fitness Lentil Bean Salad (Hurry The Food Up)

Proof that legumes can carry a serious protein target: red lentils and a can of kidney beans, with bell pepper and green onions, give about 34 grams of protein and 551 calories per bowl, per the recipe card, which counts the optional slice of wholegrain bread on the side. Nothing in it needs a specialty store. It takes about 25 minutes, eats hot or cold, and keeps in the fridge for two to three days, which makes it a natural meal-prep lunch.
