  • Toss all salad ingredients (lentils, cucumber, tomatoes, onion, feta, parsley) in a large bowl.
  • In a smaller bowl, whisk olive oil, lemon juice, honey, and garlic to make dressing.
  • Pour dressing over salad and toss gently to combine.

Notes

For optimal taste, allow to sit in fridge for at least half an hour to allow flavours to come together. If you’d prefer to cook the lentils from scratch as opposed to using canned, use about 4 cups cooked green or brown lentils. Serve with pita chips if desired.
