LENTIL SALAD W/ AVOCADO & CILANTRO
Adapted from the Cabbage Patch restaurant in Beverly Hills, this lentil salad is light & refreshing. Be sure to use a variety of lentil that stands up well to cooking, such as black or French green. Do NOT use brown lentils because they will turn mushy & unappetizing when cooked. I use the pre-cooked beluga lentils carried at Trader Joe's in the refrigerated section.
