LENTIL SLOPPY JOES IN PLANTAIN BUNS
An alternative sandwich that's full of fibre due to the plantain and lentils. They are both great sources of fibre which, as we know, aids digestion. This sandwich is healthy for everyone, but pregnant women especially will benefit from the iron and high quantity of folate in the lentils, one cup (200g) provides 358 micrograms of folate and considering the daily requirement is 400 micrograms it doesn't take a mathematician to know this adds up.
