This dish offers a 4:1 ratio of carbs to proteins, and may not be the favoured 2:1 ratio of a post-workout meal which many consider ideal for recovering. However, it is important to note that lentils offer 2.2 grams of carbs for every gram of protein that is consumed. This flavoursome Mediterranean soup is a fresh combination of tomatoes and spinach which offers that extra punch, with added minerals and vitamins as well as, proteins. All these ingredients can be easily obtained when shopping for Sri Lankan vegetables which are perfect for a rich, nutrient-packed soup.
