RECIPE IDEA: Green Lentil Salad. Vegan. Gluten free. Easy. Delish!
Hi. It’s Lois in the kitchen at Recipe Idea Shop. I had some left-over cooked green lentils over the weekend. I think green lentils are the best ones because they retain their shape and can be cooked crisp; they don’t get mushy easily like the brown or red ones.
