Ingredients

Salad

  • 9 oz lentils canned
  • 1 ½ cups cherry tomatoes
  • 6-7 oz feta cheese
  • scallions / green onions
  • fresh parsley

Dressing

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 garlic clove
  • salt and black pepper

Instructions

  • Thoroughly rinse and drain lentils. Let sit for a few to remove excess liquid.
  • Rinse cherry tomatoes and cut them into small chunks. Chop feta cheese or crumble it by hand. After rinsing both, finely chop fresh parsley and cut scallions into small pieces or rings.
  • Toss all salad ingredients into a large bowl.
  • Combine olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, honey, and water in a small container. Add minced garlic and generously season with salt and black pepper. Mix well to create dressing.
  • Drizzle dressing over salad, combine well, and give it another (taste) practice run. Add more salt and black pepper if needed.

Notes

Best enjoyed after having rested for a bit to allow all ingredients and aromatics to disperse and fully develop their flavors.
