Do you know what legumes are?

may seem a new term, but today in my cooking course I could know more thoroughly what it is, and the amount of nutrients that contribute to the body, apart that this nutrient has always been in our food pyramid.

without more to speak the legumes are plants where their fruit is a pod where the lentil, chickpea, beans, among others, where in its maturation process is dried and seeds are born, these last to mature, store food to germinate another plant.
