Other FAQs about Chocolate Breakfast Lentils
Since Crunchy Toasted Breakfast Lentils are the first ready-to-eat lentils for breakfast, we figured you’d have questions. You asked, we answered!
Q: Eating lentils can sometimes make me feel bloated. Will this breakfast cause gastric affects?
A: Good news for anyone who has avoided beans for this very reason - We go to great lengths to prepare our lentils in a way that neutralizes naturally occurring anti-nutrients such as phytic acid, lectins, and trypsin inhibitors that are found in raw legumes (lentils, garbanzos, edamame, and other beans). You will still benefit from the fiber and protein, but it’s unlikely that you will experience bloat due to anti-nutrients that we intentionally addressed.
Q: Will they get soggy if I add milk?
A: Nope! Crunchy Toasted Breakfast Lentils will soften slightly when covered in cold milk but maintain their internal crunch for at least 15 minutes – lasting much longer than traditional cereals in milk. But if you want them soft, you can soak them in milk (refrigerated), just like you would overnight oats to rehydrate the lentils for a pudding texture.
Q: Can I heat up a bowl in the microwave?
A: Please do! A quick zap in the microwave is all it takes to easily transform your bowl of Chocolate Lentils in milk into a warm cocoa breakfast experience.
