LENTIL AVOCADO SALAD
Steps:
- In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the celery, carrots and onions, and sweat for 5 minutes while stirring. Add the lentils and cover with 2 inches of water. Stir in the bay leaf and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes. Drain and season with salt and pepper. Discard the bay leaf and cool.
- While the lentils are cooking, make the vinaigrette. Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, agave, red pepper, lemon juice and zest and some salt and pepper. Slowly stream in 3 tablespoons oil while continuously whisking. Pour the vinaigrette over the cooled lentils then fold in the diced avocado and cranberries. Pour into a bowl, garnish with the chopped parsley and serve.
LIME-CILANTRO LENTIL & AVOCADO SALAD
This colorful meal comes together quickly and easily, offering a delightful mix of flavors and textures in one satisfying bowl. Lentils are a filling, plant-based source of protein that anchors this main-dish salad. To make it in a snap, look for precooked lentils in vacuum-sealed packaging or in cans, but you'll need to rinse and drain canned varieties before using. To toast the pepitas, place them in a dry skillet, and cook them over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden. You can also use pine nuts or pistachios in place of the pepitas, if you like.

Steps:
- Combine the lentils in a saucepan with 3 cups of water (or veggie broth) and stir to combine. Cook over medium-high heat until the broth reaches a simmer. Then reduce heat to medium-low, cover and maintain the simmer until the lentils are tender, about 20-25 minutes depending on the type of lentils used. Use a strainer to drain and rinse the lentils in cold water for 1 minute until they are chilled, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, as the lentils are cooking, combine all of the lemon dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together until combined.
- Add the cooked and chilled lentils, cucumber, red onion, mint and sun-dried tomatoes to a large bowl. Drizzle evenly with the lemon dressing and toss until evenly combined.
- Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 3-4 days.
LENTIL SALAD W/ AVOCADO & CILANTRO
Adapted from the Cabbage Patch restaurant in Beverly Hills, this lentil salad is light & refreshing. Be sure to use a variety of lentil that stands up well to cooking, such as black or French green. Do NOT use brown lentils because they will turn mushy & unappetizing when cooked. I use the pre-cooked beluga lentils carried at Trader Joe's in the refrigerated section.
