Lentils
In case you’re having a salad, then lentils is a great way of spicing it up. You can also just eat it as a dish since just like beans, it’s a rich legume. As such, lentils reduce your risk of getting heart disease or strokes. They are also rich in protein, potassium, and magnesium which means eating lentils will reduce your blood pressure and the level of cholesterol in your body. It also decreases the amount of plaque in your blood vessels.
