At Whole Food Earth, we love beans and lentils! 

Beans are your affordable source of protein, fibre, iron, and vitamins. There are so many varieties of beans you can add to your everyday meals. Use white kidneys in minestrone soup, red kidney beans in chili or navy beans in baked beans. Versatile pinto beans are full of flavour, but also try swapping black beans with pinto beans in recipes where you’d like fewer carbohydrates.

Chickpeas are the perfect bite to a green salad, used to make hummus, or roasted for a tasty snack. We also carry an assortment of whole and split peas, used in everything from soups to risottos.

Lentils =  the best benefits

Lentils pack more vegan protein, and typically have a bit more vitamins and minerals than beans, too. We carry a variety of lentils to choose from for simple, delicious meals. Green and yellow lentils have an earthy flavour, perfect for stews and hummus-style dips. Red and yellow lentils are the star of many Indian curry dishes like daal. Next, try Puy Lentils, or French-style lentils, which pack enough bite to be added to salads. 

Healthy plant-based diets

We believe it’s vital to buy beans, pulses & lentils online to ensure your pantry is always stocked with these plant-based protein stars. Soybeans have the highest protein content of any legume, followed by lentils. Going soy-free? Lentils are next, with 100 grams of lentils contain 26g of protein.

Legumes also have a super high fibre content. Navy beans clock in at an astounding 19 grams of fibre per cup with black beans clocking in 15 grams per cup. Lentils, too, with an average of 15 grams of fibre per cup. This is absolutely essential for those becoming vegan. Legumes are also heart-healthy and can help lower your blood pressure! A study found that adding more beans and lentils lowered blood pressure in people with and without hypertension. Looking for all organic? You can find certified organic lentils in just about any variety.

Buy beans, pulses & lentils online

How to use dry pulses? Soak them! Soaking legumes is the key to reducing oligosaccharides, the sugar that causes gas, by up to 67 percent. Canned legumes are not soaked, which is why they could be causing you digestive issues.

Beans and lentils in Bulk

Buying foods in bulk makes them significantly cheaper so go ahead and buy your dry legumes in bulk! They last up to a year when stored in a cool, dry place. At Whole Food Earth, we’re here to provide healthier, more sustainable ways to shop so you always have access to cheaper whole foods.
