This lentil salad is great to bring to a dinner party because it’s so fast and easy to make. It’s also gluten-free and can easily be modified.
I do love to cook, but not every day! I like meal assembly, essentially throwing components together to make a quick meal several nights a week. Adding in fresh components to store-bought ready-made food allows me more time to spend time with family, relax, exercise or garden! For this dish, in winter, I use fresh greens and herbs like parsley from my garden. In summer I add whichever tomatoes we are harvesting.
