Fresh & Flavorful French Lentil Salad Recipe

By



Here’s how to make this absolutely incredible French lentil salad. 

Ingredients:
– Green Lentils
– Red Cabbage
– Carrot
– Red Onion
– Red Wine Vinegar
– Olive Oil
– Dijon Mustard
– Honey
– Garlic
– Bay Leaves
– Cilantro
– Salt & Pepper

Give the lentils a good rinse before adding them to a stock pot filled with cold water. Toss in a couple of bay leaves, some fresh cilantro, and a few cloves of garlic before bringing to a simmer. 

Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils are nice and soft. 

While the lentils cook, make the vinaigrette by combining Dijon mustard, honey, salt, pepper, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. 

Thinly slice the red onion and carrot and shred the red cabbage before adding to the bowl with the vinaigrette. Toss well, ensuring that the veggies are well coated in the dressing.

Strain the lentils before adding directly to the bowl with the rest of the salad. Gently toss until the ingredients are well combined. 

This recipe is truly a celebration of flavors and textures; the tang of the vinaigrette, the crunch of the fresh veggies, and the richness of the lentils all work perfectly together.

Save this recipe, make it, and don’t forget to let me know how much you love it.

    I like it! And I reckon i can use about 1/4 of the salt you used, and / or maybe some salt substitute. Will try soon.

    DYK? Lentils are one of the few foods that have a full amino acid profile that IS NOT meat.
