Ingredients

    1/2 cup lemon juice
    1 Tbls chopped fresh dill

    Very Good
    This made 6 very generous servings with a great texture between the lentils and the crisp veggies. I found that it lacked little flavour (maybe because the salmon I used was lower-quality canned?), so I added a bit of very finely grated lemon zest and some dried tarragon. Delish! - 6/2/11
