try this refreshing, satisfying, power-food-packed lentil salad for an easy meat-free option that doesn’t feel like you’re giving anything up. lentils are fantastic for you, and this recipe (a variation on alice waters’ delicious original) showcases them beautifully.
Here are a few tips:
1. Dressing on the bottom, lettuce on the top. If the two are touching the lettuce will turn to slime.
2. So, dressing goes in first. On top of your dressing, use a rather "hearty" vegetable, such as shredded cabbage, pea pods, or julienne carrot matchsticks. They can withstand the acidity of the dressing, and actually get better!
3. Pack it in. Use a nice variety of colorful vegetables! Make it fun and involve the kids.
I remember growing up I loved deviled eggs. My family always had them at picnics and still do. But as I grew up and my tastes matured, I found I can't really stand the texture of mayo and I don't really like pickles. So this is a different take on the classic treat that uses avocado and cream cheese.
Also, UNDER 100 cals! Bonus!
