Vegetable and Lentil Salad

Name: Vegetable and Lentil Salad
Ingredients: 2 12 cups steamed lentils, they should be cold (I use 1 Trader Joe's pre-cooked lentils packaged); 1 large carrot; 12 onion (I used white, but I think red would be great as well); 1 -2 garlic clove (be wary of adding more, the garlic is much stronger when not cooked); 1 small zucchini; 13 cucumber (large cucumber, to taste, really); 1 small yellow squash; 1 large lemon; 12 cup olive oil; 14 teaspoon cumin; 14 teaspoon thyme; 1 teaspoon salt; parsley (optional); pepper

Directions

1

Mince garlic.
2

Finely dice all vegetables.
3

(I used one of those hand-held vegetable choppers) The smaller the pieces the better because you want all vegetables in each bite!
4

Put Garlic, Vegetables and Lentils in a large bowl and toss.
5

Whisk together dressing ingredients.
6

Stir in the dressing.
7

(I make enough of the dressing so it flavors the lettuce as well).

Serve on bed of mixed greens.
