Ingredients
Instructions
The first step is to make the lentils- unless you have pre-cooked lentils on hand. Add the green lentils to a medium-sized pot and add a few cups of water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer the lentils for approximately 20 to 25 minutes, or until they become tender.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked lentils, fresh parsley, mint, tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Pour the dressing over the lentil mixture and toss gently to combine.
Allow the flavors to meld together for at least 15 minutes before serving.
