Recipe by Maman

Green lentil salad with cherry tomatoes, feta, red onion and parsley, dressed with a lemon vinaigrette.

Equipment

1
Cook the lentils according to the package directions. Drain, rinse and leave to cool.
For this step
- 320 ggreen lentils
2
Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette: in a small bowl, whisk the juice and zest of half a lemon with the olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Set aside.
For this step
- 1/2lemon
- 60 mlolive oil
- 1/2 clovegarlic
- 1/2 tbsporegano
- salt
- pepper
3
Cut the cherry tomatoes into very small pieces. In a salad bowl, combine them with the lentils, parsley, red onion and feta. Add the vinaigrette and toss gently.
For this step
- 320 ggreen lentils
- 1/2red onion
- 200 gcherry tomatoes
- 4 tbspparsley
- 80 gfeta

Add the lemon juice sparingly: too much could overpower the flavors of the other ingredients.
For my usual version, I replace the lemon vinaigrette with balsamic vinegar, olive oil and salt.
I add 2 eggs and sometimes, depending on what I have on hand, a few cubes of zucchini, cucumber and/or carrot, cut into very small pieces.
