ROASTED PEPPER AND LENTIL SALAD
This is based on a Weight Watchers recipe modified to suit my own tastes. A wonderfully simple salad that can play center stage at the meal or accompany grilled meat and vegetables. Travels well and would work well for a potluck or picnic.

Steps:

- While the lentils are cooking, char the red pepper over a high flame on the stove until the skin is blackened and blistered.
- Place it in a paper or plastic bag for 10 minutes to get the skin to further loosen.
- Remove skin from pepper and dice into 1/2 inch pieces.
- Set aside.
- Drain lentils and transfer to a large bowl.
- Add vinegar, oil, garlic, peppers and basil; toss to combine.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Place salad onto serving platter/bowl or individual plates.
- Top with feta crumbles.
