I’m sure it’s no secret by this point that I’m a major fan of salads that keep at least 3 to 4 days in the fridge. I love prepping hearty salads on the weekends (or whenever I get a chance) and then I have no excuse when it comes to lunch time. If I have a healthy and delicious salad waiting for me in the fridge, I’m much less likely to nosh on chips and cheese.
About this lentil salad recipe
This lentil salad is a great one to have in the fridge, all ready for a quick lunch. Lentils are super nutritious and they become more flavorful the longer they sit in the homemade honey, lemon, and Dijon dressing. It’s a filling and satisfying lunch on even the busiest of days. It’s very easy to make, too. Look for green lentils which are best for salads. They are sometimes called French lentils and hold their shape much better than brown or red lentils. They have a somewhat peppery, earthy flavor that works well in this salad.
