Steps:
- Chop cooked beets into large bit-sized pieces.
- In a large bowl combine beets and lentils. Add half the mint, parsely, and green onions. Mix together.
- Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix and taste the salad to ensure the flavours are to your liking, but keep in mind the flavour will develop more once the salad has sat for a bit.
- Add the salad to the serving bowl. Add the radishes, rest of the herbs, greek feta and walnuts.
- Enjoy!
LENTIL BEET SALAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400F. Rub all of the beets with a light coating of olive oil. Wrap each beet tightly in foil or parchment. Roast the beets for 45 minutes-1 hour, or until they're buttery tender when pierced with a knife. When the beets have cooled for about fifteen minutes, run them under cold water while you slip off their skins. The skins should come off easily. Chop the roasted, skinned beets into pieces that are about 1" (or a little smaller).
- While the beets are roasting, bring a pot of water to boil. Drain the lentils of their soak water, then add them to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer the lentils for 25-30 minutes, or until they're tender but still hold their shape. Drain the lentils, taking care to remove as much cooking water as possible so that they're not watery when you add them to the salad.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
- Add the prepared beets, lentils, and dressing to a large mixing bowl. Toss to combine. Add the baby arugula and chives, if using. Toss again, gently. Serve the lentil beet salad with your favorite toast or bread.

- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, 10 minutes, and transfer to paper towels with a slotted spoon. Add the shallot to the pan drippings and cook for 20 seconds. Remove from the heat; whisk in the vinegar and sugar.

- Meanwhile, remove the Swiss chard stems; reserve 3 leaves and chop the rest. Place the whole leaves over the lentils, cover and wilt, 1 minute. Remove the chard and cover the lentils. Season the salmon with salt and pepper and wrap a wilted chard leaf around each fillet.
- Reserve about 1 cup lentils for another use. Stir the honey and lemon juice into the remaining lentils and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped chard. Place the wrapped salmon on top of the lentils, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook over medium-high heat until the fish is just cooked through, 6 minutes.

WARM LENTIL SALAD WITH ROASTED BEETS AND GOAT CHEESE
Steps:
- Begin by roasting the beets.
- Tie onion, carrot, celery, bay leaf, and thyme sprigs together in cheesecloth. Place chicken stock in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir in the lentils, season with salt and pepper, and reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the lentils are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well and discard the cheesecloth bag of aromatics.
- Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until lightly golden brown. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a dish lined with paper towels. Add the garlic and carrot to the pan and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the cooked lentils and bacon to the pan and stir to combine. Stir in the chopped thyme and 1 tablespoon of sherry vinegar. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep warm.
- To assemble, place the frisee in a large bowl, toss with half of the vinaigrette, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the roasted beets around the outside of 4 dinner plates. Divide the greens among each plate in the center. Top the frisee with some of the warm lentils and place a slice of the goat cheese on top. Drizzle each salad with the remaining vinaigrette. Serve with slices of French bread.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Coat beets lightly with oil. Wrap beets in aluminum foil, place on a baking sheet, and roast in the oven until cooked through, approximately 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool for 10 minutes, and then peel and slice into 1/4-inch thick slices.
- Whisk together the vinegar, mustard, thyme and salt and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oil and whisk until emulsified.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine onion, quartered carrot, celery, bay leaf, and 5 cups water; cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, add lentils, and simmer, uncovered, until lentils are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain, and discard the seasonings.
- Meanwhile, place beets in a medium saucepan. Add enough water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cooking until fork-tender. Remove saucepan from heat. Remove beets from water, and set aside until cool enough to handle, reserving cooking liquid. Peel, and return beets to cooking liquid until ready to serve.
- Make the vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, whisk together mustard, honey, sugar, and balsamic vinegar. Still whisking, slowly add 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil; set aside.
- In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Add the finely chopped carrot and bacon. Cook until the color of the bacon has changed, about 1 minute. Add the cooked lentils, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the lentils are heated through. Drizzle with red-wine vinegar, and stir to combine. Transfer lentils to a medium bowl.
- Place greens in a medium bowl. Drizzle with vinaigrette, tossing to combine. Divide greens among four plates. Top with warm lentils. Place a slice of goat cheese on the lentils. Slice beets and arrange around the perimeter of the plates; serve immediately.
BEET AND LENTIL SALAD WITH CHEDDAR
This salad is a party of sweet, earthy and salty flavors. Store-bought, vacuum-packed beets are called for here, which are not only convenient, but have a mellow fruitiness and a tender texture that is ideal in salads. (If you have fresh beets, and have the time to roast them, you can use those instead.) Beets naturally pair well with sharp and tangy ingredients, and while goat cheese may be a more common accompaniment, crumbly aged Cheddar offsets the sweetness of the beets and the apple cider dressing (though any sharp Cheddar works). French green lentils offer a nutty, peppery, almost mineral-like flavor and are perfect for salads because they hold their shape well, though if you only have brown lentils, that's just fine. (They cook slightly faster, so adjust the cook time accordingly.) Finally, there's no shame in opting for canned lentils.

Steps:
- Prepare the salad: In a medium pot, add the lentils, garlic and 4 cups water. Season with salt and bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to medium, cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes until just tender. (The lentils should still have some bite). Drain in a colander and stir to break up and evenly distribute the garlic. Let the lentils cool slightly.
- While the lentils cook, prepare the vinaigrette: In a large serving bowl, whisk the garlic, vinegar, oil, maple syrup and mustard with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
- Add the warm lentils to the serving bowl, then add the arugula, herbs and beets. Season with salt and black pepper and toss. Add the Cheddar and toss gently, but don't overdo it because you don't want the cheese to turn crimson from the beets. To serve, top with hazelnuts.
