LENTIL MY SALAD! Simple and Healthy Brown Lentil Salad @Cooknbake
I can't believe I haven't made it in such a long time!
It doesn't have many ingredients but the combination of the few flavors combine and create a great tasty and even addicting salad. :)
Its great for for those summer picnics, as you could prepare it a day or two before and store in the fridge, or even at home as an addition to any meal.
I made it today and was Simple delicious and healthy!
They are a great addition to any meal, nutty and earthy in flavor.
With high in nutrition and low in calories, they are the perfect legume to eat in salads, spreads, and even as a side dish to any meal!
