Beetroot and Lentil Salad - 🌱 A heart-healthy, antioxidant-rich dish.

Beets are packed with nitric oxide, improving circulation and endurance while supporting cardiovascular health. Lentils add fiber and protein, promoting satiety and stabilizing blood sugar levels. Walnuts provide omega-3 fatty acids, which enhance brain function and reduce inflammation.
