Lentil Salad

[Guest guest]

While looking for lentil salad recipes, came across this one. Haven't tried

it yet, but I plan to. If anyone makes this, would love to hear your opinion.

 

 

1 cup lentils, preferably green

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed

2 TB Balsamic Vinegar

1 TB Dijon Mustard

1 1/2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1/4 tsp pepper

1/8 tsp allspice

1 large carrot, finely diced

3 TB minced scallions

4 cups (loosely packed) torn spinach leaves

4 tsp chopped pecans, toasted

 

Prep Time: 30 minutes

 

In saucepan, bring 3 cups of water to a boil over high heat. Add lentils and

1/8 tsp of salt, and cook until lentils are tender but still hold their shape,

about 25 minutes. Drain.

In large mixing bowl, whisk together orange juice concentrate, balsamic

vinegar, mustard, olive oil, pepper, allspice and remaining 1/8 tsp salt.

Stir in drained lentils, carrot and scallion. Add spinach, tossing well to

coat. Serve salad sprinkled with pecans.
