Made this last night to go with some harissa smoked tofu for me and harissa chicken for the rest of the fam. It was absolutely fantastic. Sadly no real leftovers from it as they ate it all in one go. Will definitely make again as it does useful double duty as a salad and carb side. Really lovely and a great flavour combination. One of my daughters even said how lovely it smelt while I was making it.

This was wonderful! I used French lentils and left out the green onions peppers, but I’m sure they’re amazing and add wonderful flavor. Everything else was perfection. Thank you!!

Delicious tangy and refreshing salad. Had to make a few adjustments based on what I had on hand. Used the steamed lentils from Trader Joe’s, fresh red pepper and a couple thinly sliced radishes just because. Probably went a bit overboard with the lemon juice at least for some tastes, but fine for me; even zested both lemons into the mix. Also added a couple teaspoons of German mustard and tempered that down with a dash of agave. Will make again, and have roasted peppers available, think that would up the game a notch! As it is, perfect for my hot and humid weather. Thank you!

Yummy. And I added carrots and celery. Swapped cherry tomatoes for roasted peppers. Glad to have precise cooking for firm lentils!

Really excellent when made, but lost all flavor after being in the refrigerator overnight. Used some Greek salad dressing on the left overs which wasn’t the same but was fine.

In reply to Emily Ryan. Hi Emily, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I have a few cold lentil salads that are perfect for when the weatehr is warm or when you want something quick and easy to pull out of the refrigerator! Thanks for taking the time to comment and rate the recipe.

Made this salad yesterday and ate it this morning for breakfast. Incredible!! Will definitely be making regularly. I love lentils but I’ve never had them in a cold salad before so this was new for me. Thank you so much for this recipe!

Amazing salad, so refreshing. I did not have parsley nor green onions so subbed with yellow onion and cucumber – still tasted great! Will have to try with green onion and parsley next time ! Definitely keeping this in my regular recipes. Thanks for sharing <3

Amazing and so simple because I always have these ingredients in my fridge.
Sooo refreshing and delicious and you were correct.
My 8 friends ALL marvelled at how light and delicious the salad was AND yes asked for your recipe as well

This salad will be on my repeat list.
Oh ! I used canned lentils and doubled the recipe for the party.
I renamed it “party animal lentil salad.”
Shhh don’t tell anyone it’s good for them … just get the party started!!!
