VEGAN TOMATO, CUCUMBER, AND LENTIL SALAD
This is one of my favorite fresh summer salads. The lentils add a nice smoky flavor to the spicy onion, basil, and sweet balsamic vinegar. This is delicious served hot or cold and is a very satisfying vegan main dish.

VEGAN LENTIL SALAD WITH APPLES AND CARROT
This is a simple and healthy lentil salad that I love, especially in summer since it tastes great warm or cold. If you like it spicy, you can add a little bit of fresh jalapeno to the salad.

VEGAN LENTIL SALAD
With the rising prices of meat and my pocket book getting smaller and smaller, I have started to experiment with lentils and beans. It's cheap, easy, flavorful, and packed full of protein. Please note the dressing is to my taste so I would suggest tasting as you go. I have also substituted the vinegar with lime juice and the parsley with cilantro for a different flavor. Just play with whatever ingredients you have in the pantry!
