This is SO GOOD! Reminiscent of potato salad but so much better. I wanted to try it because it seemed like a weird assortment of ingredients, and I knew it would be good because your salads are the best! Thanks for sharing! This one is definitely going on repeat!

It is nice salad, reminds me of warm potato salad. I used red lentils insted of suggested, but it worked well too. And even without peperoncini.

In reply to Annie. Hi Annie, The best tahini comes from Ethiopia. I like Soom Foods, which I bought on Amazon. My other go-to? Trader Joe’s organic tahini, which is made from Ethiopian sesame seeds like Soom’s. Whole Foods 365 used to be my go-to, but I encountered a few bad jars that tasted so bad, I’m afraid to try again.

Hi Kate. I was wondering what brand of Tahini you like best. I haven’t had much luck finding one I really like. And, thanks for all your awesome recipes. I’ve loved every single one I’ve made.

Okay, I’ll admit when I first saw the ingredient list, I thought it sounded like kind of a weird combo. Gave it a try anyway.

So glad I did, because wow. It was seriously out of this world. The hot peppers gave it the perfect kick, and the tahini brought everything together with this creamy, nutty flavor that just made the whole salad. Totally unexpected, totally delicious. Great recipe!

Thank you for sharing this recipe. Made this salad first time yesterday. Turned out great. As an Indian, we eat lentils everyday but this salad offers a unique way to have them. Will definitely make it again.

Soooo good! Second time making this in a week. It tastes better after the first day, so perfect for work lunches. There is so flavorful, I didn’t really notice the dill havarti, so that would be the only thing I would eliminate. I end up adding some of the pepperoncini juice to the finished salad.

Loving this for my lunch all week long. Might add more pepperoncini and juice and dill as the week goes on to perk it up. Love all the crunch, flavors and textures. Also used Havarti with Jalapeno (store was out of dill havarti) and it was great.
